AUTHORS
Mike Hudec received his Ph.D. from the University of Wyoming. He has worked for Exxon Production Research and taught at Baylor University. He joined the Bureau of Economic Geology in 2000, where he is codirector of the Applied Geodynamics Laboratory. His current research interests include palinspastic restoration of salt structures, salt-sheet emplacement mechanisms, and minibasin initiation.
Martin Jackson received his Ph.D. from the University of Cape Town in 1976, taught at the University of Natal, and joined the Bureau of Economic Geology in 1980. He established and codirects the Applied Geodynamics Laboratory. His current research interests include salt-sheet emplacement mechanisms, passive-margin tectonics, and behavior of salt in orogenic belts.
