Sarah W Hull
Lecturer
Dr. Hull is a structural petrochronologist studying lithospheric deformation of collisional settings using a variety of methods, including field mapping, macro- and micro-structural analyses, geo- and thermochronology, and thermobarometry. Her research is focused on understanding how the lithosphere responds to multi-stage deformation at varying conditions. Her current research sites are located in the Blue Ridge of northwestern North Carolina and the Guatemala Suture Zone.
