Ph.D. in Earth Sciences - Structural and metamorphic geology

Research summary

During the last years, I focused my research on (i) the subduction dynamics in orogenic systems and (ii) the thermicity related to the thermal evolution through time and space.

On the one hand, I endeavored to better constrain the geodyamic evolution of the Betic-Rif Cordillera (Spain and Morocco), specifying the tectono-metamorphic chronology of the Alpine orogeny. Through a multi-scale and interdisciplinary approaches, I could precise the modality of the sub-continental mantle emplacement and the timing of rock exhumation under high-pressure/low-temperature (HP/LT) metamorphism conditions.

On the other hand, during my postdoctoral research I was broadly interested by the development and improvement of new or existing predictive tools as well as databases management. Heat flow calculations have been produced at global and local scales (Black Sea, Guinean Gulf, Mozambique Channel and West Mediterranean region).
