My Ph.D. focuses on the palaeogeography and tectonic evolution of Thailand. Thailand is made up by three major terranes: Indochina, Sukhothai and Sibumasu. These three terranes have not always been connected therefore; this project investigates their origin, relative position, separation/collision with other blocks and past environments. By collecting samples across the three terranes and analysing their geochemistry, this research will assist in understanding their tectonic history. This project will focus on the Sibumasu Terrane but overall aims to better constrain the timing of the amalgamation of all three major tectonic blocks. I was also a research assistant for the Centre for Coastal Research for 1.5 years.
