Dr. Merguerian is internationally recognized as the leading authority on the geologic structure and tectonics of New York City. He is the Principal of Duke Geological Laboratory in Stone Ridge, NY, Professor Emeritus and former Chairman of Geology at Hofstra University, Curatorial Associate at Yale University and has a broad range of expert consulting experience with the United States Geological Survey, the California- and Connecticut State Geological Surveys, New York City DEP, Con Edison, many prominent private mega-construction joint ventures as well as geotechnical and engineering firms and sits on the PPP Advisory Board of Star America Company. Since 1972, Merguerian has gathered over a half century of professional experience in geologic mapping and structural analysis of complexly deformed metamorphic terrains, plutonic- and volcanic districts and areas underlain by sedimentary- and glacial strata throughout the United States. His chief geological expertise encompasses basic geologic mapping, petrography, ductile- and brittle-fault analysis, tectonics, and earthquake-hazard assessment of crystalline terrains with forays into the fields of astro-, sedimentary- and glacial geology. He has performed pure- and applied research and has published yearly since 1977 over 240 maps, papers, guidebooks, technical reports and abstracts from such widely separated areas as NY, NJ, CT, MA, CA, and NV.
