Sculpting the Earth’s topography: insights from modelling deep–surface processes (TOPOMOD)
Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
TOPOMOD is a training project designed for a team of early-stage and experienced researchers to investigate and model the origin and evolution of topography of the continents over a wide range of spatial and temporal scales and using a multi-disciplinary approach, coupling geophysics, geochemistry, tectonics and structural geology with advanced geodynamic modeling.TOPOMOD involves 8 European resea ...

Modelling and geochemical implications of intra-arc melting: consequences for the composition of the continental crust (MELTARC)
Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2014,
"Arcs are expected to be the fundamental brick of the Continental Crust (CC). The main problem with this hypothesis is that the bulk CC has an andesitic composition while most arcs are formed by successive inputs of basaltic magmas.If island arcs accretion is indeed the main mechanism of crustal growth, one must explain how arcs can reach an intermediate composition and if these processes are effe ...
