Chemical and isotopic characterization of Antarctic meteorites: The chemical and isotopic effects of thermal processing and terrestrial weathering on the (re-)distributions of trace elements in chondrites
My PhD research aims to encompass a detailed chemical and isotopic characterization of “well-preserved” Antarctic meteorites to improve our understanding of the (re-)distribution of various trace elements in specific meteorite types and the effects of the (re-)distribution on radiogenic isotope syst...
