BIO

I am an Earth scientist with a research emphasis on geo- and environmental science. My team and I develop theory, new computational techniques and collect field data to understand how the Earth works from the mantle to the surface and its interaction with the environment and biota. We work with academic and industrial colleagues around the world. You can find an overview of my research and publications, courses I teach, and the excellent research students and postdocs I have supported on my website: www.garethgroberts.com. I have spent much of my academic career at Imperial College London. Before that I was a postdoc and PhD student at the University of Cambridge and an undergraduate in Durham University. I am a visiting associate at the California Institute of Technology. A lengthier history with invited talks, funding, etc. can be found on my website: www.garethgroberts.com.
