Dr. Matthew Gleeson

Biography

Matthew Gleeson specializes in Volcanology and Igneous Petrology, employing computational analytical methods to investigate magmatic systems, the onset of melting in heterogeneous mantle, and the eventual triggering of volcanic eruptions. His research aims to enhance the understanding of the processes involved in volcanic activity and the dynamics of Earth's interior. By analyzing various data sets and modeling approaches, he seeks to shed light on the factors that contribute to volcanic eruptions, contributing to both theoretical knowledge and practical implications in geology and hazard assessment.
