James Boyd work experience
A career timeline built from the work history available for this profile.
Doctoral Student
PhD topic focuses on timelapse electrical resistivity tomography processing, petrophysical lab work, and slope stability analysis. The PhD topic is partnered with Lancaster University.
Oct 2017 - Oct 2023
Work Placement
3 week placement with the geophysics group at RSK, shadowed on site work. Involved with acquiring Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and electromagnetic data.
Jul 2016 - Aug 2016
President/Secretary
Seg Aapg Student Chapter
Arranged talks and field trips for the University of Leicester geology department. The highlight was a presentation by a US TV show host Geoff Notkin on meteorite hunting (which included novel uses of geophysics).
Nov 2014 - Jun 2016
Summer Undergraduate Research Experience (Sure)
(6 weeks) Used scanning electron microscopy and energy X ray dispersive spectroscopy to study a Martian meteorite sample; an upper crustal Martian basalt. Studied the chemisty of pyroxene and olivine phases; typically found to 80 -50% Enstatite/ Forsterite. A shock melt vein dissects the sample and hosts zones of possible hydrothermal alteration which have entrained volatiles and serpentenised surrounding olivine crystals. It possible these hydrothermal processes occurred on Mars; I proposed they may have been caused by a impact induced hydrothermal system.
