Bio:

Dr. Peter Voice is an instructor in the Department of Geological and Environmental Sciences at 澳门六合彩官网直播.

He teaches earth systems, historical geology, invertebrate paleontology, sedimentology, advanced stratigraphy, geomorphology, mineral deposits and ocean systems. Voice works as a research associate for the Michigan Geological Repository for Research and Education directing its K-12 Earth Science Outreach Program, CoreKids. In addition, Voice uses numerical and statistical methods to understand large-scale patterns in sedimentation. He has conducted research on carbonates and siliciclastics in Michigan and other states.

His past research focused on the Global Detrital Zircon database and the provenance study using detrital zircons in Liassic rocks of southern Virginia. With all published detrital zircon U-Pb age dates prior to 2010, he was able to look at sedimentary records of crustal recycling and growth using this database. Voice previously studied Burnt Bluff Group, a package of Lower Silurian carbonates ranging from deep shelf to emergent tidal flats; he used facies analysis, paleoecological data and stable isotopes to better interpret paleoclimate during deposition.
