Africa

• Aubreya Adams studies the origin and evolution of the East African Rift System, and its relationship to the African Superplume and researches the origin of the enigmatic Cameroon Volcanic Line.

Mars

• Joe Levy is prospecting for glacier and permafrost ice deposits on Mars that might contain traces of past habitable environments or that could be used by future explorers using satellite and rover data.

Antarctica

• Amy Leventer does extensive climate change research on the East Antarctic Margin.
• Joe Levy studies the sediment, water, and ice in Antarctica’s Dry Valleys to understand the connections between climate change, hydrology, and life in extreme environments.

Galápagos Islands

• Karen Harpp researches the volcanic processes and history of the Galápagos.

Eastern North America

• Aubreya Adams investigates the seismicity and crustal structure of the Adirondack Mountains.
• William Peck studies metamorphic and igneous rocks in Quebec, New York, and New Jersey to determine the tectonic history of Eastern North America 
• Paul Harnik studies the impacts of human activities, in particular eutrophication and climate change, on coastal ecosystems in the Gulf of Mexico by comparing live populations with the remains of historical populations preserved in seafloor sediments.

Western North America

• Joe Levy is measuring the flow rate and internal structure of debris-covered glaciers in Alaska and the mountain West to determine how changing temperature and precipitation is encoded in glacial landscapes.
• Martin Wong's work in the southwestern United States aims at gaining an understanding of the mechanics of metamorphic core complexes.
• Aubreya Adams uses seismic data recorded along the southern Alaskan margin to determine how upper mantle structures and dynamics relate to spatial variability of earthquake and volcanic behaviors.
