Areas of expertise:
My research focuses on geochronology and petrology, and their application in petrochronology to determine the timing and rates of geological processes, with the aim of understanding the geodynamic evolution of orogens.
My work involves a combination of fieldwork and laboratory observations, primarily focusing on the following subtopics:
– Reconstruction of pressure-temperature-time trajectories;
– Melt formation and evolution;
– The effect of high-grade metamorphism on the isotopic record;
– The role of metamorphic processes in the availability and transport of elements.
To address these issues, I conduct my research using a multi-proxy approach comprising petrography with textural analysis; mineral chemistry of major and trace elements in major and accessory phases (compositional maps); investigation of inclusions (mineral, fluid and melt); thermobarometry; thermodynamic modelling; geochemistry and geochronology
