We explore the processes that shaped the origin, evolution, and present state of the Earth and other planets. As geologists, we investigate the history and dynamics of Earth’s crust and interior through the study of rock formations, mineral compositions, and the processes that drive tectonic movements and volcanic activity.

As geophysicists, we seek to understand the physical properties and processes of the Earth’s surface and interior, including seismic activity, mantle composition, magnetic fields, and the dynamics of the Earth’s mantle and core.

As Planetary scientists, we study the formation, geology, and atmospheres of planets in our and other solar systems. These lines or research intertwine with one another and the other areas to inform on topics ranging from Earth-based natural hazards to extraterrestrial conditions.
