I am Senior Researcher at PGP (Physics of Geological Processes, at the University of Oslo. I am the scientific coordinator of the Fluid Earth Group at PGP, which involves activities on volcanic processes, CO2 sequestration, and petroleum systems.

PGP is a Norwegian Center of Excellence, which aims to bring geologists and physicists to work together in order to get a better understanding of the geological processes, governed by physical phenomena.

Manuscript accepted to European Physics Letters, without changes

Our manuscript "Drainage fracture networks in elastic solids with internal fluid generation", by Kobchenko, M., Hafver, A., Jettestuen, E., Galland, O., Renard, F., Meakin, P., Jamtveit, B., Dysthe, D.K., has been accepted without corrections!

Manuscript submitted to Nature Geoscience

We recently submitted a manuscript entitled "A unified model for dykes versus cone sheets in volcanic systems", by Galland, O., Burchardt, S., Hallot, E., and Mourgues, R. We cross the fingers!

The Andean Geotrail at EGU!

The photograph exhibition of the Andean Geotrail will be exposed at the European Geoscience Union (EGU), which is the largest Earth Science meeting in Europe (EGU photograph exhibition).

Manuscript in revision for EPSL

We finally got the reviews from the manuscript by Haug, Ø.T., Galland, O. and Gisler, G.R., entitled "Dynamics of fragmentation applied to volcanic explosions", submitted to Earth and Planetary Science Letters. Major revisions are required, but we are quite confident to make the manuscript go through.

Meeting report accepted in EOS.

After the MeMoVolc meeting we organized in Oslo (see below) we published a short note to EOS - AGU Transactions. pdf.

Manuscript accepted for publication in Journal of Structural Geology.

Our paper entitled "Sheath fold morphology in simple shear", by J. Reber, M. Dabrowski, O. Galland and D. Schmid, is now in press in Journal of Structural Geology after minor revisions.
