OverviewAI-generated summary
Glenn R. Sharman's research focuses on understanding sediment routing systems and provenance using detrital geochronology. His work investigates the sources and transport pathways of sediments, particularly in forearc basins and continental margins. He has developed computational tools, such as the Python-based toolset 'detritalPy,' to aid in the visualization and analysis of detrital thermochronologic data.
His publications explore the application of detrital zircon U-Pb geochronology to determine maximum depositional ages of modern sediments and to reconstruct paleogeography and drainage reorganization. Specific research areas include the detrital zircon provenance of the California forearc, the sediment routing system of the Western Interior of the United States, and coarse clastic deposition in the Magallanes–Austral foreland basin. Sharman also studies chronostratigraphic frameworks, with implications for geological boundaries such as the Triassic-Jurassic boundary in southern Africa.
Sharman holds an h-index of 20 and has authored over 150 publications, accumulating more than 1,700 citations. He actively collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Jordan Oefinger, John Shaw, Celina Suarez, and Jack Fekete. He maintains an active lab website to share his research.
