Mark A Helper
Distinguished Senior Lecturer, Emerita
, Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences
, Jackson School of Geosciences
helper@jsg.utexas.edu
+1 512 471 1009
Expertise: Dr. Helper is a field geologist, a generalist whose interests span igneous and metamorphic petrology, structural geology, tectonics, mineralogy and planetary field geology. His previous research explored geochemical and isotopic similarities of Proterozoic and Archean crust in East Antarctica and the southwestern U.S., the Precambrian geology of Texas, the origin of epidote blueschists in the Klamath Mountains of northern California and the rheology and tectonic significance of melange and blueschist in the SW Chugach Mountains, Alaska. Senior honors theses under his supervision have examined the mineralogy of Texas topaz, hydration and textural patterns in Balmorhea blue agate, and the distribution and origin of fractures in the Hueco Tanks syenite. He currently does Texas field mapping and GIS geologic map database compilations as part of the BEG STATEMAP program.
Working with NASA colleagues, he is also involved in analog planetary field research that examines the utility and efficacy of robotically gathering field data, both as a prelude to and follow-on to human geologic field work on the Moon and Mars. As co-chair of FEAT (Field Exploration and Analysis Team), he helped develop a new curriculum for the geological field training of astronauts and currently co-leads NASA's astronaut field geology training exercises. He also teaches field mapping techniques to NASA engineers and scientists who are developing capabilities for exploring the surface of asteroids, the Moon and Mars.
