معرفی
David Jousselin is a Lecturer at the University of Lorraine, France, affiliated with the Centre de Recherches Pétrographiques et Géochimiques (CRPG), a joint research unit of CNRS and the University of Lorraine. His work focuses on magmas and deep fluids within ophiolite complexes, particularly the Oman ophiolite, contributing to understanding oceanic lithosphere formation.
His research integrates petrology, geochemistry, and tectonics to investigate mantle melting, melt migration, and Moho transition zone formation. Key methodologies include osmium isotope analysis, structural mapping, and integration of field observations with geochemical data to model magmatic processes at mid-ocean ridges. He examines dunite structures, gabbro layering, and mantle diapirs to unravel oceanic crust evolution.
Recent publications (2016-2021) emphasize Oman ophiolite studies, revealing rapid melt migration toward the Moho, structural controls on mantle processes, and comparisons with active spreading centers. His work demonstrates consistent application of isotopic tracers and structural analysis to address fundamental questions in mantle dynamics and ophiolite genesis.
