Experiences out with the PhDI spent four months employed in the Geodynamics Group, University of Washington, Seattle (2002). Here I was employed to develop my discrete element code to their research project I worked with Fin Stuart, SUERC, East Kilbride, investigating and modelling low temperature isotherms in orogens (2001). To put this work in the context of (U-Th)/He thermochronometry, I wrote a 2D helium diffusion model to predict ages in apatite given a time temperature history Field assistant to Ladakh, Himalaya (2001) to collect apatite (U-Th)/He samples to constrain the evolution of the Ladakh Batholith. Field assistant on two trips to the Pyrenees (2000) to collect apatite (U-Th)/He samples and geomorphological data (2003) Throughout my PhD I have done web design work for various academics.
