Funded Activity Summary

Carbon and Hydrogen in Melts and Fluids in Planetary Interiors. The Australian community will benefit by the ownership of widely used high impact research in published earth science. This research defines the melting behaviour of silicate-rich materials (terrestrial planets, rocky-moons, meteorites) within the solar system. The research will be required for interpretation of Martian samples and will help to ensure that Australian laboratories participate in 21st Century investigations of the Solar System by virtue of their leading roles in understanding volcanism and melting behaviour at high pressures and under variable oxidation states. The research will address a national priority in sustainability of earth resources i.e. knowledge underpinning formation of Australian mineral resources.
