Research summary
AI-generated

José Luis Antinao studies the recent geological history of landscapes, focusing on how rivers, glaciers, and desert alluvial fans (fan-shaped sediment deposits) have changed over the last few hundred thousand years. This work uses field mapping, sediment dating, and geochemistry to reconstruct past climate and understand hazards like debris flows and landslides. Much of the research is centered in the Andes of Chile, the Baja California peninsula of Mexico, and glacial deposits in the U.S. Midwest.

Collaborators per year
Distinct co-authors at Indiana University each year — a rough indication of whether the group around this researcher has been growing or contracting. An estimate from co-authorship, not a roster: collaborators are not necessarily lab members, and recent years can be under-counted while indexing catches up.
