Helen Lever

Helen Lever is a Lecturer at the Institute of Petroleum Engineering, Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh. Full details of her research and publications are available here.

Her research focus is sedimentology, focussing on interpretation of depositional environments and climate signals from sedimentary rock successions. She is currently interested in studying unconformities and other surfaces that occur frequently in sedimentary successions - how they form, diagnostic features to look for, and how they affect fluid flow through the rock mass.
