Activity
This research is focussed on petrology, geochemistry and thermodynamics applied to fluid-rock interactions to constrain fluid release, transport, and sequestration in distinct geodynamic settings. The main cases considered are: fluids released during subduction and their role in orogenic magmatism; fluids present in lithospheric mantle that is source of intraplate magmatism; fluids released from collisional orogens; metasomatic rocks. The studied localities are: the alpine-himalayan orogen, the Dabie-Sulu orogen (China), the ethiophian rift, the Canary islands.
