Earth and Planetary Magnetism
We use both numerical simulations and direct observations to characterise how magnetic fields are generated in the Earth and other planets.
We investigate reactive fluid and geothermal energy transfer in the Earth's crust employing computer simulations, laboratory experiments, and field analyses.
