Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Kathryn E. Hanson's research investigates evolutionary patterns in marine invertebrates, specifically focusing on the relationship between morphological changes and ecological innovation in echinoderms during the Cambrian and Ordovician periods. Her work has examined how variations in organism form precede and are more volatile than the emergence of new ecological niches. Hanson has also studied the geological processes influencing deep-water clastic deposition, particularly in the Santa Monica Basin, California, exploring the effects of changing sea levels on sediment quality and character. Her scholarly output includes eight publications, with a total of 22 citations and an h-index of 1. She has collaborated with Glenn R. Sharman on two shared publications.
