WOOSTER, OHIO–Six Wooster geology seniors presented their research to the campus and public this morning in Kauke Hall on the College of Wooster campus. They were among the first posters in the annual Senior Research Symposium in which Independent Study projects are highlighted and celebrated. They did very well — their geology faculty advisors are proud indeed. Here they are with their presentations:
Sarah Appleton ’12: Dating of the Mid-Holocene History and Glacial Stratigraphy of the Wachusett Inlet, Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, Southeast Alaska. (Links to Sarah’s work on the Wooster Geologist’s blog.)
Lindsey Bowman ’12: Geochemical and Field Relationships of Pillow and Dike Units in a Subglacial Pillow Unit, Undirhlíðar Quarry, Southwest Iceland. (Links to Lindsey’s work on the Wooster Geologists blog.)
Andrew Collins ’12: A Comparison and Analog-Based Analysis of Sinuous Channels on Rift Aprons of Ascraeus Mons and Pavonis Mons Volcanoes, Mars. (Links to Andrew’s work on the Wooster Geologists blog.)
Nick Fedorchuk ’12: Stratigraphy and Paleoecology of the Wenlock/Ludlow Boundary on Saaremaa Island, Estonia. (Links to Nick’s work on the Wooster Geologists blog.)
Rachel Matt ’12: Paleoecology of the Hilliste Formation (Lower Silurian, Llandovery, Rhuddanian) on Hiiumaa Island, Estonia: An Example of a Shallow Marine Recovery Fauna. (Links to Rachel’s work on the Wooster Geologists blog.)
