Computational Earth and planetary scientist interested in the physical requirement for a habitable planet. Her research focuses on - but is not restricted to - the interior and tectonic processes that shape rocky planets. Anna strives to put observations from geophysics, space, geology, and geo/cosmo-chemistry in a physics-based framework using state-of-the-art numerical modelling techniques. She is experienced in numerical modelling of both global-scale mantle convection and regional-scale tectonics and volcanism on Earth and Venus.
