The objective of my research is to better understand the nature and duration of mountain-building events, a consequence of plate-tectonics. This is done by careful mapping of rock units where they are well exposed, such as coastal Newfoundland, followed by examination of their minerals under the microscope, and determination of their ages of crystallization.

我研究的目的是更好地了解造山运动的性质和持续时间，这是板块构造的结果。 这是通过仔细绘制岩石单元的地图来完成的，这些岩石单元暴露良好，例如纽芬兰沿海地区，然后在显微镜下检查其矿物，并确定其结晶年龄。
