Academic Interests and Accomplishments:

Dr. Guccione's current research has been focused in two general areas. First, the evolution of bedrock-incised valleys in the Ozark and Ouachita Mountains. This includes the migration, incision, and aggradation of stream channels and the sedimentation and geomorphology of valley floors. Second, Dr. Guccione studies stream response to internal and external variables in alluvial valleys. This includes response of the Mississippi River to subtle neotectonic deformation in the New Madrid seismic zone, channel migration, cutoffs, and avulsions, and backswamp sedimentation. Nearly all of her research has been collaborative with archeologists.
