Chloë Glover, a Department of Geology and Environmental Science Ph.D. Candidate in the Dietrich School has been awarded the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Mendenhall Research Post-Doctoral Fellowship. Glover will be working with the Geology, Minerals, Energy, and Geophysics Science Center on the project titled Integrated geophysical and structural analysis to identify 3D critical mineral resources and tectonic context of NE Washington.
The goal of her research is to develop a 3D tectonic framework of northeastern Washington State from thermo-kinematic models and new high-resolution aeromagnetic and radiometric data from the EarthMRI to model and identify critical mineral resources.
