What I do for a living, (besides virtual field trips)


  • Make geological maps of Mesozoic and Cenozoic landforms and deposits in Nova Scotia
  • Document and evaluate economic deposits of Mesozoic and Cenozoic age in Nova Scotia
  • Interpret the formation of the present landscape in Nova Scotia

See Cretaceous deposits in Nova Scotia for an interesting case history on how basic geological mapping can have economic benefits to Nova Scotians.
