Dr Carrie Soderman

Very excited that the first application study (with @owenmweller) of our new thermodynamic model for alkaline silicate igneous rocks has just been published! We identify a key fractionation pressure to form Qz and Ne-bearing rocks, and look at implications for their REEs budgets.

This summer, @cbeardgeo @CarrieSoderman @owenmweller headed to Greenland to investigate how #criticalmetals form in alkaline igneous rocks. Look at the cool minerals they encountered: pegmatite veins containing amphiboles, feldspars and blood-red eudialyte. #igneous #petrology

First fieldwork of 2024, and some geological highlights ticked off my bucket list ⛰️

Our #REEDRILL @icdpDrilling workshop at the beautiful Sunbird Kuchawe Hotel in #Malawi, supported by @MkangoResources, is in full swing. Really interesting talks and discussions on #scientificdrilling #RareEarths, #groundwater and #microbiology.

Lavas reveal the life story of the Galápagos mantle plume. New research by our @CarrieSoderman, with @HelenWCam, @oshorttle & @simonwmatthews 🌎🌋 Using Fe isotopes, they show how the ingredients making up the plume have changed over its lifetime. ➡️bit.ly/3JzNW5H

A small fraction of recycled crust, possibly from the lower mantle, has consistently carried through the #Galapagos mantle plume for 90 million years, according to a new #geology study. scim.ag/1Rc

My final thesis chapter has been published - a very satisfying conclusion to my PhD👇🏻🌋 We use Fe isotopes to look at lithological heterogeneity over the evolution of the Galápagos mantle plume 🌎

Thank you for this award @GeochemGroup👇🏻🌍 - this paper showcases some of the work that I’m most proud of from my PhD and I’m thrilled that others think it’s interesting too!

👇🏻🌋 Ready for volcano outreach day @NHM_London!

@GeoKevW Yay, congratulations!!!!

@olivia_hogg @MemingPhD Hahaha

@MemingPhD @CarrieSoderman one for you!

@MadeleineBohlin Thank you Mads!

@CarrieSoderman Very well done Dr Carrie😉!! Big congrats 🥳🥳🥳

It has been a very fun 4 years 🎉🌋 #phdone

@HelenWCam @aylabr and @texttopath have photos that I know of, but maybe some others have too!

Our new fellows were installed in a traditional ceremony in the college chapel last night. Welcome to Zeina Al Azmeh, Leo Impett, Ernesto Vargas Weil, Carrie Soderman, Arabella Milbank Robinson & honorary fellow David Dabydeen.

@marcamillet @Selwyn1882 @stjohnscam Thank you!

I suppose this is the time to share that I’ll be joining @Selwyn1882 as a research fellow in October! @stjohnscam has been a wonderful Cambridge home, and I’m grateful for my 8 years there, but I’m very excited to meet new colleagues and students at Selwyn 🌋🌎 #nearlypostdoclife

Two contrasting days of weather @sedbergh2022 @EarthSciCam ☔️☀️

Term is just around the corner and as autumn beckons, you might be wondering what happened to a summer of fun research and conferences 🍂🏖️ On our blog: @Alasdair_Knight takes us to Hawaii for a reminder of July’s #Goldschmidt2022 conference. 👉 bit.ly/3Use2Ld

Caer Caradoc and Shropshire looking gorgeous with the incoming second years @EarthSciCam, working on field sketching and taking in some wonderful views #nearlypostdoclife
