معرفی
Stephen Hubbard is a Professor and Vice-Dean in the Faculty of Science at the University of Calgary, specializing in sedimentary systems within the Department of Earth, Energy, and Environment. His research focuses on siliciclastic sedimentology and stratigraphy to address problems from bed- to basin-scale.
Educational Background:
- PhD Geological and Environmental Sciences, Stanford University, 2006
- MSc Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, University of Alberta, 1999
His research examines foreland/forearc basin evolution, deep-water channel processes, early hominid landscapes, and fluvial meander belt architecture. He leads the Chile Slope Systems Project to understand sediment transfer in deep-water slopes through outcrop analysis in the Magallanes Basin.
Recent publications demonstrate a focus on advanced basin analysis techniques including Bayesian chronostratigraphy, 3D digital outcrop mapping, and isotopic provenance methods applied to foreland basins and deep-water systems.
Scientific Awards:
- American Association of Petroleum Geologists Distinguished Lecturer (2020)
- Best Paper in Journal of Sedimentary Research (2019, 2018)
- Faculty of Graduate Studies Great Supervisor Award (2015)
- Medal of Merit, Canadian Society of Petroleum Geologists (2013)
He supervises graduate research through the Chile Slope Systems JIP collaboration between University of Calgary, Colorado State, Virginia Tech and industry partners.
