IODP Expeditions

• Expedition TBD: Pacific Equatorial Age Transect

Research

• General research interests: expand the knowledge of fluid flow and the development of pore pressures based on both laboratory-measured permeability values and numerical models at accretionary complexes. Specific objectives include
  • Synthesize permeability data and predict permeability-porosity relationships at four major convergent margins (northern Barbados, Costa Rica, Nankai, and Peru).
  • Investigate the evolution of pore pressures and implications for episodic fluid flow at the Barbados accretionary complex using a two-dimensional growth and flow model.
