Master's Thesis
My graduate research explored the evolution of the salt wall structures in the Paradox Basin in Utah and Colorado. This work combined extensive field research with subsurface mapping and three-dimensional modeling.
Comprehensive field work across multiple sites
Detailed structural and stratigraphic analysis
Integration of field observations with subsurface mapping
