Research interests:
My research focuses on geological fluid dynamics and its consequences for the rock record. I aim trying to tie together geochemical observations with dynamical processes. I am currently working for example on :
- Magma production in the upper mantle and lower crust, its storage in the crust and possible transport all the way to the surface (conduit and eruption dynamics).
- The effect of flow on the isotopic fractionation of calcium during calcite precipitation from a solution.
Visit the research page to see more (like this numerical calculation of multiphase flow in a melting porous medium) ...
