معرفی
David Neave is a Senior Lecturer and NERC Independent Research Fellow at the University of Manchester's Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences. His research focuses on magmatic systems, integrating experimental and field-based approaches to understand magma storage, eruption dynamics, and magmatic processes. He accepts PhD students and leads projects on mantle dynamics and volcanic systems.
Education:
- Doctor of Philosophy, Earth Sciences, University of Cambridge (2014)
- Master of Science, Natural Sciences, University of Cambridge (2010)
Research Interests: Igneous petrology, experimental petrology, geochemistry, and volcanology. Specializes in magma storage, mantle sources, and volcanic eruption mechanisms. Uses fieldwork, microscopy, and computational modeling to study magmatic processes.
Recent Article Trends: Focus on mantle sources (Nyiragongo), magma storage dynamics (La Palma), and volcanic plumbing systems (Krafla, Bagana). Highlights include studies on clinopyroxene geochemistry and CO2-rich melts.
Awards:
- NERC Independent Research Fellowship (2020)
- Alexander von Humboldt Postdoctoral Fellowship (2015)
- Presidential Fellowship (2019)
Advising & Grants: Leads NERC-funded projects on mantle oxygen fugacity and magmatic volatiles. Collaborates on UK-based pressure vessel systems research. Supervises PhD students in petrology and volcanology.
Labs/Teams: Member of the Petrology and Volcanology research team at Manchester. Involved in datasets like X-ray tomography studies of Icelandic magmatic nodules.
