Welcome to David Pollard's Structural Geology website at Stanford University.
Here you will find information about current research activities, graduate students, teaching materials for the textbook Fundamentals of Structural Geology, and draft materials for the new undergraduate textbook Structural Geology: A Quantitative Introduction.
Meredith Townsend and David Pollard led a field trip to Ship Rock, NM, for students and faculty from the Navajo Dine College. This was part of the Broader Impacts component for an NSF Grant.
