Welcome to my blog focuses on my research areas. As a petrologist and volcanologist, I possess expertise in interpreting magma reservoir processes and modeling dynamic magma evolution. With great enthusiasm, I aim to disseminate the knowledge and recent findings of my post-graduate studies on the petrological relationships between crystalline inclusions containing glass alongside their explosive products found within Gölcük Caldera (located in Isparta, SW Turkey). Moreover, readers can anticipate gaining insight into micro/mesoscale reconstructions of differentiation processes occurring along distinct volcanic centers encompassing the Sultansazlığı basin in Central Anatolia, Turkey. Furthermore, this platform will offer a glimpse into other domains wherein I excel, including alteration mineralogy, machine learning applications for geological investigations, and air dispersion models of natural minerals utilizing geophysical techniques coupled with X-ray micro CT analysis on fixated analogue models.
