Márta Berkesi

EAG Councillor

Márta Berkesi obtained her PhD from Eötvös Loránd University (Hungary) in 2011, but her doctoral research was partly conducted at the GeoRessources Laboratory (Nancy, France). She did postdoctoral research in Nancy in 2012, then she returned to Hungary. She is currently a senior research fellow at the HUN-REN Institute for Earth Physics and Space Science. Her research focuses on deep lithosphere fluids and mantle degassing. Her research on fluid inclusion studies focuses on the better understanding of mantle fluids and mantle metasomatism, characterizing fluids associated with carbonatites, and characterizing complex multiphase HP-HT metamorphic fluids. She led (as PI) research group on the application of 3D Raman spectroscopy to refine the above types of fluid systems. At her current workplace, she leads a research group that uses an interdisciplinary (geophysical, geochemical, and volcanological) approach to explore the degassing processes of the mantle and lower crust.
