The European Alps and Plate Tectonics : A rocky relationship »
Although the Alps are typically used as a “fossil” convergent margin akin to modern oceanic subduction zones, we will explore the geological record which suggests instead that the Alps might be better understood in terms of continental tectonics, namely extreme intracontinental extension, ultra-slow plate separation and compression of hyper-extended continental domains and we will discuss possible consequences.
Craton Stability: What’s Thickness (and shape) Got To Do With It. »
I will summarize the connections between craton thickness and (in)stability, the limits on craton thickness, and the consequences of long-lived, thick lithosphere.

Internal tide energy pathways at the coast »
The turbulent dissipation and mixing associated with internal waves form a critical component of ocean physics, setting abyssal stratifications and determining the rate at which the deepest waters of the global overturning circulation rise.
Mainland Australia's next volcanic eruption: Insights into future activity from volcanology, petrology, Indigenous knowledge and public...
The last volcanic eruptions in mainland Australia took place around 4,500-5,000 years ago and were witnessed by Indigenous Australians.
