Jerome is the Professor of Earth and Planetary Fluid Dynamics based at the Department of Earth Sciences and Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics.
The Earth and Planetary Fluid Dynamics group focuses on using mathematical models and laboratory experiments to understand the fluid behaviour of the Earth and other planetary bodies. Current research interests include the consequences of subglacial hydrology on supraglacial lake drainage and the tidal modulation of ice streams, the solidification of magma oceans and the early generation of magnetic fields on planetary bodies, the erosive dynamics of idealised river systems, the emplacement and solidification of magmatic flows, viscous tectonic mountain building, and the general fluid dynamics of geological carbon storage.

Kelly is a Marine Geophysicist at the British Antarctic Survey, specialising in reconstructing the history of Arctic and Antarctic ice sheet using seafloor records. She has been working in Greenland since 2000, reconstructing how ocean heat causes fast-flowing outlet glaciers to decay. Today, Kelly is the lead of two large projects in Greenland – the first aims to untangle how much the East Greenland glaciers stepped back ~9000 years ago when summer air temperatures over the continent were 2°C warmer. The second project is the largest in the ARIA Forecasting Tipping Points portfolio which targets climate tipping points on the Greenland Ice Sheet and in the adjacent North Atlantic. This project goes from bespoke ocean measurements right next to glacier faces through physical models to the UK’s Earth System Model to improve our representation of the Greenland Ice Sheet in global climate models.

Owen is Professor of Metamorphic Petrology at the Department of Earth Sciences and a Fellow at Sidney Sussex College, with over a decade of research experience in the Arctic. Work in Owen's research group aims to understand the formation of magmatic critical metal deposits by integrating field observations, phase equilibria modelling and geochemistry. Owen’s research has a particular focus on the petrogenesis of rare-earth element (REE) deposits associated with alkaline-silicate igneous rocks in southern Greenland, for which Owen was awarded a UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship. 

Michael is the Professor of the History and Geography of Science at the Department of Geography, Scott Polar Research Institute. He has written extensively on the role of scientific research in the exploration and development of the Arctic, exploring issues in historical epistemology including the philosophy of experiment, measurement in fieldwork, the nature of precision and calibration, science and technology in translation, and the historical emergence of new ontologies.
