Lead Research Organisation: University of Edinburgh
Department Name: Sch of Geosciences

Abstract

You will conduct Synchrotron-based 4D CT experiments to directly observe the eff ects of metamorphic dehydration on the mechanical stability of serpentinite on the grain scale and identify conditions that might lead to earthquakes.
