George E. Hilley
Stanford University
Professor
Expertise: Landscape response to faulting / folding of the Earth's crust using geologic and geomorphic studies, and numerical models of tectonic and erosional processes. Studies span mountain range development (Myr) through landform development (10s-100s kyr).
