Research interests: Planetary systems - Currently I am focusing on Earth and Martian hydrothermal systems. I model these systems to examine fluid and heat output near magma intrusions under the Martian surface and Earth's sea floor. Results help determine if Martian hydrothermal systems are/were possible formation mechanisms for surface morphology. At and near Earth's mid-ocean ridges, results indicate contributions of focused high-temperature flows and low-temperature diffuse flows to the Earth's overall heat flux. |
