Biography

Harold
Stowell
Tuscaloosa, Alabama
I am primarily an educator and researcher with interest in many aspects of the natural world, ranging from lower crustal geological processes to subpolar and polar ecosystems. Primary research interests are in high temperature processes in the Earth's crust. I currently focus on high P and T rocks that aid in understanding the production and evolution of continental crust.
