Journal Article
Mendes, A., & Lau, L. (2019). A postcolonial framing of international commercial gestational surrogacy in India: Re-orientalisms and power differentials in Meera Syal’s The House of Hidden Mothers. Interventions, 318-336. https://doi.org/10.1080/1369801X.2018.1558094

The branding and marketing of post-millennial India as a global service provider has been relentless. Indian cities have now been de-exoticized from their previous association to elephants, snake-charmers, and slums, and are now being marketed as the...

Structural and geodynamic modelling of the influence of granite bodies during lithospheric extension: application to the Carboniferous basins of northern England (2019)
Journal Article
Howell, L., Egan, S., Leslie, G., & Clarke, S. (2019). Structural and geodynamic modelling of the influence of granite bodies during lithospheric extension: application to the Carboniferous basins of northern England. Tectonophysics, 47-63. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tecto.2019.02.008

Intra-basinal highs within classic ‘block and basin’ style tectonic frameworks are underpinned by large granite bodies. This is widely believed to relate to the relative ‘rigidity’ and ‘buoyancy’ of granite in relation to accommodating basement. It h...

Magmatic evolution and textural development of the 1739 CE Pietre Cotte lava flow, Vulcano, Italy (2019)
Journal Article
Bullock, L. A., Gertisser, R., O'Driscoll, B., & Harland, S. (2019). Magmatic evolution and textural development of the 1739 CE Pietre Cotte lava flow, Vulcano, Italy. Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research, 372, 1-23. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jvolgeores.2019.01.017

Textural evidence from occurrences of mingled magmas in lava flows often yields insights into chemical and thermal disequilibrium between multiple magma batches at depth. An understanding of these interactions is key as they can occur on short timesc... Read More about Magmatic evolution and textural development of the 1739 CE Pietre Cotte lava flow, Vulcano, Italy.
