!!James K. Russell - Curriculum Vitae
\\
Position: Full Professor (1999- current), Volcanology and Petrology Laboratory\\
\\
__Scope of research:__   
\\ \\
My expertise is in the fields of volcanology and petrology with allied skills in thermodynamics, mathematics, optimization and computer programming. I am fundamentally interested in the formation and physical-chemical evolution of magmas and their eruption. My research has involved numerical analysis of chemical data and computer modelling of the thermodynamic consequences of magmatic processes coupled to field-based observations.\\
\\
__Current research interests:__\\
\\
1. Glaciovolcanism as probes of paleo-environment and proxies for paleo-climate. \\
2. Predictive models for transport properties of silicate melts and magmas.\\
3. High-temperature rock mechanic experiments on the rheology of volcanic systems.\\
