James W. Hagadorn, PhD

Dr. James W. Hagadorn seeks to understand how our planet has changed over time.  With a combination of field and laboratory based geology, his research informs us about how Earth’s outer membrane has functioned in the past, and how it responds to perturbations—today, in deep time, and potentially in the future.
