Media

I endeavour to communicate the outcomes of my research projects with the broader public through traditional and social media – as well as through creating simplified visual aids such as movies and animated GIFs

An example of a video created to explain results of our work on mantle earthquake pipes, which show the path of fluid-melt migration between a subducted plate to below the Earth’s surface. For further details, please see White et al., (2019, EPSL)

Radio

I’ve been asked to discuss my research and its implications in radio interviews with ABC Radio (Australia), Radio New Zealand (NZ) and the Academic Minute (USA).

Print/Web

I’ve also written pieces for popular science magazines and science blogs, and have also had various news articles written about my research. Further details and hyperlinks to some examples are provided below:
