New paper out on our record-breaking mantle peridotite hole on the Atlantic seafloor. This one is on hydrogen production and carbon compounds in ultramafic systems - essential for understanding subseafloor life!

Mind blowing rocks of Rosso Levanto: mantle peridototes that were carbonated and then weathered on the ocean floor of the Piemont-Ligiria ocean.

Very excited to attend the #IODP Expedition 399 postcuise meeting and see all of the exciting science on mantle processes, fluid-rock interaction and ultramafic-hosted life!

Really upset and angry with my alma mater @vuamsterdam.bsky.social for closing their Earth Sciences degree and firing the associated staff. It shows a profound lack of understanding of the role of the Earth Sciences in the green transition. And once people are gone the expertise is lost...

Really proud of PhD student Max Jansen, who has just published his first PhD paper, working out the relationships between depleted and enriched melts at mid-ocean ridges.
