Reflection seismic data acquisition, processing, interpretation on the Atlantic Coastal Plain, Blue Ridge-Piedmont, and Valley and Ridge provinces.

Generation of synthetic seismograms from continuous velocity logs. Correlation of well logs with reflection seismic data. Determination of velocity in igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks under pressure using ultrasonic laboratory methods.

Research funds
Over $10,000,000 outside federal, state, and industry funds while at Virginia Tech as first or second Principal Investigator-Correspondent since 1967. Most of this was related to reflection seismology and terrestrial heat flow. Largest single project was DOE-sponsored multi-year Evaluation and Targeting of Geothermal Energy Resources in the Southeastern United States for approximately $5,000,000 over 5 years. Most recent large grant was NSF-sponsored ADCOH (Appalachian ultraDeep COre Hole) site selection study in collaboration with five other universities; Virginia Tech funding (for geophysics) was about $1,000,000 for two years.
