The Role of Slab Dip on the Formation of Porphyry Copper Deposits
“Subduction angle exerts a fundamental control on volcanism, mountain building, and ore deposit formation, yet the factors governing slab dip remain debated. We combine the Slab2 …
GPlates and pyGPlates workshop
A four-day workshop introducing participants to GPlates and pyGPlates for plate tectonic reconstructions and spatio-temporal data analysis. The course covers the GPlates desktop …
Intraplate volcanism triggered by bursts in slab flux
Modelling 100 million years of subducted slab volume reveals that bursts in slab flux trigger intraplate volcanism in eastern Australia.
An Early Cretaceous subduction-modified mantle underneath the ultraslow spreading Gakkel Ridge, Arctic Ocean
Seafloor lavas from the ultraslow Gakkel Ridge preserve geochemical signatures of an Early Cretaceous subduction zone, revealing ancient mantle heterogeneity beneath the Arctic …
Intraplate volcanism triggered by bursts in slab flux (invited speaker)
Investigating the link between changes in subducting slab flux and the triggering of intraplate volcanism, with a focus on the volcanic record of eastern Australia.
Stagnant slabs at the transition zone linked to widespread volcanism in Eastern Australia and Zealandia
Partial melting of ancient subducted slabs provide a framework through which to explain non-age progressive volcanism in a region of anomalous mantle composition.
The origin of intraplate mafic volcanism along the eastern margin of Australia
The eastern margin of Australia has experienced extensive mafic volcanism since its breakaway from Antarctica (~ 80 Ma). A plume origin has been suggested for intraplate volcanism, …
