معرفی
Scott A. Hageman is an Associate Professor of Geology/GeoScience at Park University, located on the Parkville Campus. His academic career includes a B.S. in Geology from the University of Kansas, graduate studies at the same institution, and doctoral work at the University of Tennessee. His research focuses on paleontology, physical geography, and geological processes, with a particular emphasis on fossil taphonomy, marine trace fossils, and multidisciplinary cemetery studies integrating geospatial technologies.
Education:
- B.S. Geology, University of Kansas
- Graduate Studies, University of Kansas
- Ph.D. Candidate, University of Tennessee
Research interests span multiple domains including:
- Paleontology of marine and terrestrial vertebrates (sharks, choristoderes)
- Carboniferous-cretaceous microfossil assemblages
- GIS applications in necrogeography and cemetery analysis
- Fossil preservation mechanisms and taphonomic processes
- Sedimentary depositional systems analysis
Recent work emphasizes shark tooth morphology, Pennsylvanian marine ecosystems, and integration of geophysical methods with historical archaeology. His publications demonstrate expertise in functional morphology, biostratigraphy, and interdisciplinary approaches to paleoenvironmental reconstruction.
