The focus of my research is on the dynamics of fluid planetary interiors and on core-mantle interactions in terrestrial planets. These are key elements in the evolution of planets and explain why, within our solar system alone, each planet has had a markedly different history. In this proposal, my research group will address using advanced computational models topics that range from understanding variations in the length of the Earth's day through to complex fluid behavior seen in the atmospheres of the giant planets.

我的研究重点是流体行星内部的动力学和类地行星的核-地幔相互作用。这些都是行星演化的关键元素，并解释了为什么仅在我们的太阳系内，每颗行星的历史就明显不同。在这个提案中，我的研究小组将使用先进的计算模型来解决各种主题，从理解地球一天的长度变化到在巨型行星的大气层中看到的复杂的流体行为。
