Marine Geology and Geophysics: The Marine Geology and Geophysics program supports research on all aspects of geology and geophysics of the ocean basins and margins, as well as the Great Lakes. The Program includes: Structure, tectonic evolution and volcanic activity of the ocean basins, the continental margins, the mid-ocean ridges, and island arc systems Processes controlling exchange of heat and chemical species between seawater and ocean rocks Genesis, chemistry, and mineralogic evolution of marine sediments Processes controlling deposition, erosion and transport of marine sediments Past ocean circulation patterns and climates and Interactions of continental and marine geologic processes
