Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Gregory Dumond's research focuses on understanding geological processes through field observations and analytical techniques. His work investigates the evolution of Earth's crust, particularly under conditions of high pressure and temperature, and the mechanisms driving continental deformation. Dumond has published on topics ranging from the use of minerals like monazite as indicators of shear strain in orogenic belts to the geophysical characterization of geological structures such as alkaline-carbonatite complexes and uplifted mountain ranges.

His research also extends to the study of landslides, employing electrical resistivity imaging to understand subsurface conditions. Dumond is involved in projects examining the deep crustal evolution, including the impact of magmatic underplating on continental crust formation. He has received federal funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) for two projects totaling over $1.3 million. One grant, as Principal Investigator, supports research into the impact of magmatic underplating on lower continental crust evolution. The other, as Co-Principal Investigator, funded the acquisition of a multicollector ICP-MS, enhancing capabilities in geology, archaeology, and paleobiology.

Dumond collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Govind Joshi, Barry Shaulis, Mohamed H. Aly, and Andrew P. Lamb, with whom he has co-authored multiple publications. His scholarly output includes 55 publications, with an h-index of 14 and over 700 citations, indicating a sustained contribution to the field of geology.
