Jade Won the 2020 Undergraduate Research Award!

Congratulations to our undergraduate group member Jade Wight for winning the Deane Oberste-Lehn Scholarship to conduct her project:

Modeling Mantle Plumes and Their Effect on Dynamic Topography

with Prof. Carolina Lithgow-Bertelloni and Jonathan Aurnou, which is now going to start at home!

Carolina Lithgow-Bertelloni
Carolina Lithgow-Bertelloni
Professor of Geodynamics

Prof Lithgow-Bertelloni’s research is geared towards understanding the connection between the dynamics of Earth’s interior and their surface expression, including the influence of dynamics on surface deformation and topography. Research approaches to these questions include numerical simulations and experimental fluid dynamics.
