Dr. Parcell's areas of research include sedimentary basin analysis, sedimentology and stratigraphy, and visualizing conceptual uncertainty in geologic datasets.

Basin analysis is the study of the history of sediment accumulation within depocenters and the tectonic processes that create the basin depression, influence the distribution of sediments, and deform the contained rocks. Understanding sedimentary basins allows better understanding of the distribution of sediments, fluids, and carbon sources and sinks. Sedimentary basin analysis requires integration of stratigraphic, structural, biostratigraphic, and geochemical data.

The Sedimentary Basin Modeling Lab is involved in a number of new projects. Any undergraduate and graduate students interested in working on any of the following projects are encouraged to contact Dr. Parcell for more details.

Resource Exploration in Sedimentary Basins

• Modern and ancient sedimentary record of the controls on climate and sea-level change through geologic time.
• Geothermal exploration in sedimentary basins. Stratigraphic controls on distribution of heat production and thermal conductivity.
• Exploration for lithium and REE-enriched brine waters in sedimentary basins.

Managing Uncertainty in Geologic Decisions

• Development of Geologic Thought during the Scientific Revolution (16th to 18th centuries)
• Chemostratigraphy for high-resolution of environmental and sea-level record in sedimentary basins
• Geoscience computer simulations and serious game development for visualization and accessibility
• Machine-learning/soft computing approaches for decision making and classification in the geological concepts. Fuzzy logic and neural networks.
