Joseph Stoner is a Professor in the Geology and Geophysics unit of the College of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences at Oregon State University. He received his B.S. in Geology from the University of Florida in 1987, M.S. in Geology from the same institution in 1991, and Ph.D. in Resources Minérales from Université du Québec à Montréal in 1995. His academic career encompasses positions as Visiting Assistant Professor in the Department of Geology at the University of Florida (1995–1997), Research Associate in the Geology Department at University of California Davis (1998–2001), Research Associate at INSTAAR, University of Colorado Boulder (2002–2004), Assistant Professor at Oregon State University (2004–2009), Associate Professor (2009–2018), and Professor since 2018. Stoner directs the OSU Paleo- and Environmental Magnetism Laboratory since 2009 and co-directs the OSU Marine and Geology Repository since 2010. He has been a member of GEOTOP at Université du Québec à Montréal since 1995.
Stoner's research focuses on sediment magnetism encompassing paleomagnetism, environmental magnetism, geomagnetism, sedimentology, stratigraphy, and paleoclimatology. Ongoing investigations reconstruct Holocene geomagnetic field patterns in the Arctic (Canada, Svalbard), Gulf of Alaska, Iceland, East Greenland, and North Atlantic; late Pleistocene paleomagnetic records from the Chilean Margin; and advance geomagnetic paleointensity as a global stratigraphic dating tool. He has contributed to major seagoing expeditions as principal investigator, proponent, and shipboard scientist, including IODP Expeditions 341 (Southern Alaska Margin, 2013), 323 (Bering Sea, 2009), and RV Oceanus expeditions. Service includes NSF review panels, IODP Science and Technology Panel (2010–2013), US Advisory Committee for Scientific Ocean Drilling (2013–2016), and International Ocean Discovery Program Distinguished Lecturer (2017–2018). Key publications feature 'South Greenland ice-sheet collapse during Marine Isotope Stage 11' (Reyes et al., Nature, 2014), 'The Holocene retreat dynamics and stability of Petermann Glacier in northwest Greenland' (Jakobsson et al., Nature Communications, 2018), 'Cordilleran ice-sheet growth fueled primary productivity in the Gulf of Alaska' (Müller et al., Geology, 2018), and highly cited papers such as 'Antarctic timing of surface water changes off Chile and Patagonian ice sheet response' (Lamy et al., Science, 2004).
