My research focuses on the thermomechanical evolution of the continental crust in active or exhumed systems, especially the processes related to fluid-rock-deformation interactions. My approach combines field work with detailed structural and microstructural analysis, stable isotope geochemistry, and geothermochronology to study the evolution of the different parameters (temperature, stress, strain rate, role of fluids) that control deformation and exhumation over different timescales.
Our research focuses on the thermomechanical evolution of the continental crust in active or exhumed systems, especially the processes related to fluid-rock-deformation interactions.
I am interested in tectonic processes affecting the continental crust, including collision, crustal thickening, orogenic collapse, and the development of continental metamorphic core complexes. I have also developed an interest in modeling fluid flow, heat transfer, and deformation in fault zones.
