My research is primarily focused on using … My research is primarily focused on using a number of independent datasets to determine the subsurface geometry of the Himalayas. I am currently using seismic and thermochronologic constraints to define the correct lateral geometry of the Main Himalayan Thrust. I would like to extend this to understanding the connection between subsurface geometry in convergent margins to topography and geomorphic markers. The exact relationship between the two is not currently well-defined. One way that I would like to understand the connection is to combine kinematic models of the region with a landscape evolution model. This combination would allow me to test different subsurface geometries, and understand how differences in the sequential development of an orogen can lead to differences in topography. Combining this with results from thermal modeling and seismic data would result in a three-pronged approach in producing a thoroughly well-constrained three-dimensional model for the subsurface of Nepal. This method could in the future then be extended across the Himalayas, and eventually to other orogens.</br>This workshop would assist me greatly in understanding the mathematics and physics underlying the numerical modeling of landscapes, and how I can potentially apply them to my own work. Additionally, it would allow me to interact with research groups that are doing research on different applications of landscape evolution models, and how tectonics are coupled to them. As a graduate student, this would allow me to broaden my focus and understand the total breadth of issues and potential uses of the methods. I would also be able to look for potential post-doctoral projects, and move forward to becoming and independent researcher in my own right.nd independent researcher in my own right. +
