Patrick Fulton joined the faculty of Cornell’s Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences in January 2019. His research interests include hydrologic thermal processes in fault zones, focusing on the mechanisms that control fault slip behavior and provide insightful signatures in fault rocks. Prior to joining Cornell, Fulton completed postdoctoral work in Oregon and Texas, and held a research scientist position in California. He previously taught at Texas A&M University for several years. Fulton's work utilizes observational techniques, quantitative analysis, and numerical modeling to study the interactions of heat and fluid in fault zones, integrating concepts from hydrogeology, thermal geophysics, geomechanics, and their applications to earthquake physics and tectonic processes.
