In the late 70s, I did work on the geochemistry of xenoliths from this locale. Related publications can be found here. |

My primary research interest lies in applying trace elements, major elements and isotopes in studying Earth processes. Specifically, these include We have used the above geochemical tools to study a wide variety of topics in earth sciences such as: Archean crustal evolution; meteorite impact origin of the Sudbury Complex, the P-T impact evidence from the discovery of chondritic meteorite fragments at the Graphite Peak, Antarctica; Mesozoic mantle plume volcanism; Tertiary arc-trench collision evidence, understanding volatile and mass transfer mechanisms in the mantle wedge; arsenic release mechanism in the Bengal Basin groundwater, submarine groundwater discharge and the marine Sr-isotopic record, Himalayan foreland basin weathering; and others.
