Davies directs ANU's Research School of Earth Sciences and builds open-source simulation frameworks that model mantle convection, volcanism and plate dynamics on supercomputers. His G-ADOPT platform, developed with international partners and Australian research infrastructure agencies, gives the global geoscience community reproducible tools for probing Earth's deep interior.
