Bradley James Thomson

Bradley J. Thomson currently works at the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences at the University of Tennessee. https://lunatic.utk.edu/ As a planetary geologist, I am interested in understanding the physical processes that have shaped the surfaces of the terrestrial planets, including impact, eolian, fluvial, lacustrine, and volcanic processes. I have endeavored to unravel the complex geologic histories of Mars, the Moon, and Venus using geologic mapping and geologic analysis with diverse types of remotely sensed data, including radar, optical, near-IR, thermal, and surface contact data. An overarching theme of my research is to constrain the nature and timing of physical processes in planetary environments.
