Miss Amy L Elson MGeoscience (Hons) 1st class
Postgraduate research student

Miss Amy Elson is a postgraduate research student within Ocean and Earth Science, National Oceanography Centre Southampton at the University of Southampton.
I came from a 4 year undergraduate Master’s degree in Geoscience at Keele University, where my work varied from a structural interpretation of a strike-slip fault zone and its associated sinistral wrenching of a basal thrust, in Cantabria during my 3rd year, to focussing on arid continental sedimentology during my master’s project. My master’s thesis is titled: Aeolian and Fluvial interactions for reservoir characterisation: Examples from the Wingate and Kayenta Formations, Utah, U.S.A. and required extensive fieldwork in challenging environments.
