RESEARCH INTERESTS:
The evolution of the Menderes Massif and North Anatolian Fault (Turkey), Himalayas (India and Nepal), and south India (Tamil Nadu); models for heat, mass, and fluid flow along tectonic structures; developing techniques for isotopic microanalysis; applying mineral equilibria to estimate environmental conditions during dynamic recrystallization; accessory mineral geochronology. Overall, I am interested in developing and applying petrochemical and geochemical techniques to the study of lithosphere dynamics.
