Biography
Dr Massimo Gasparon's research interests are in the fields of: Environmental geochemistry; Arc volcanism, mantle-crust interactions in subduction zone environments; and Potassic and ultrapotassic volcanic rocks in orogenic environments. He received his PhD from The University of Hobart. His current Research Projects are in the areas of: Anthropogenic trace metal contamination in Antarctic fresh waters, soils, and organisms Groundwater geochemistry in the Great Artesian Basin Magmatic processes in the west Sunda arc and crust/sediment/mantle interactions in a subduction environment Potassic and ultrapotassic rocks of the Roman Comagmatic Province (Italy) Neogene magmatism of the northern Apenninic Arc (Italy)
