Biography
Dr. David M. Pearson, Assistant Professor Ph.D., Geosciences, University of Arizona, 2012 M.S., Geosciences, University of Arizona, 2007 B.S., Geological Sciences, University of California, Santa Barbara, 2002
Research Interest
Dave's research is focused on deformation of the continental crust. His approach is primarily field-based and at the regional scale, integrating structural geology, geo- and thermochronology, and metamorphic petrology in the context of tectonic processes.
