Matthew Reinhold
Ph.D. Student in Geological Sciences, admitted Autumn 2019
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsPlanetary habitability, specifically looking into the effects of tidal heating as both a source of energy to maintain habitable climates, and as a means of keeping small, terrestrial worlds warm, and thus geologically active for long periods of time. In addition, I am interested in the physical, geological and chemical processes on exotic worlds, like Saturn's moon Titan. How do the climates of such worlds evolve, and what kinds of geologic features would they produce on the landscape?

Ph.D. Student in Geological Sciences, admitted Autumn 2016
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsPh.D. student interested in biogeochemical cycles and how their signals can be used as proxies in the rock record. I'm especially interested in the effects that changing redox conditions have on the geochemistry of black shales and the implications for natural gas production.
