About

Karl Karlstrom is a Distinguished Professor at the University of New Mexico, USA. His research interests focus on geological processes and their evolution, particularly in the context of the Grand Canyon area. Recent articles explore topics such as Cambrian biota, Cretaceous tectonics, and karst aquifer systems across the Colorado Plateau. His work employs advanced thermochronological methods to investigate historical geological landscapes and aquifer dynamics.
