Referat wygłosi dr Samuel C Boone z Uniwersytetu w Sydney:
A Global Modelling Framework for Disentangling Tectonic, Geodynamic, & Climate Drivers of Deep-Time Exhumation Histories.
Sam is a Lecturer in Geology at the University of Sydney, School of Geosciences. Before joining the University of Sydney, he had held postdoctoral positions at the Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz (Germany), the University of Melbourne (Australia), and the University of Adelaide (Australia).
His research aims to better our understanding of Earth’s dynamic evolution by studying the tectonic, thermal and chemical history of the crust. To do this, he integrates field observations and structural geology with thermochronology, geochronology, geochemistry, geospatial data science and numerical modelling techniques. Recent applications of his research include the exhumation and preservation of critical mineral deposits needed to decarbonise, examining to what extent Cryogenian ‘Snowball Earth’ glaciation denuded the continents, and quantifying the interplay of plate tectonics, geodynamics and paleoclimate in long-term exhumation histories. He works across vast swathes of Earth history addressing questions ranging from how the cratonic cores of Africa formed more than 2.5 billion years ago, to charactersing the thermal signature of 2019-2020 Black Summer bushfires baked into the charred bedrock of southeast Australia. In his new role within the EarthByte Group, he focusses on utilising regional geochronological, isotopic and geochemical datasets to parameterise and evaluate plate tectonic, geodynamic, and landscape evolution simulations.
