Hi, I'm Rick Behl, CSULB's sedimentologist. I teach classes in Stratigraphy & Sedimentology, Earth Systems & Global Change, Sedimentary Petrology, Petroleum Geology, Physical & Chemical Oceanography, and General Geology. My students and I collaborate with scientists from around the world to investigate many fundamental and applied aspects of the Earth System. In particular, I am interested in past global change (paleoceanography & paleoclimatology), the tectonic and sedimentary history of the California Margin, and the relationships between diagenesis and deformation, especially in the formation of chert in the Monterey Formation. |
