Nicholas Hayman Research Associate PhD, University of Washington, 2003 MSc, University at Albany, SUNY, 1997 BSc, University at Albany, SUNY, 1995 Telephone: (512) 471-7721 email: hayman@ig.utexas.edu   Nick's CV

Nick studies faults and fault rocks, the latter the geologic record of faulting and related processes such as earthquakes and hydrothermal fluid flow. He is also interested in general problems in structural geology, tectonics, and lithospheric dynamics.
