Adelie Delacour completed her undergraduate studies in France and is now a graduate student at the Department of Earth Sciences, ETH-Zurich, Switzerland. She is a petrologist and geochemist working mainly on the basement rocks of the Lost City Hydrothermal Field. She is conducting isotopic analyses and characterization of volatiles to understand the uplift and alteration history of the basement rocks of the Atlantis Massif, and the links between serpentinization and microbial activity, and how these processes contribute to the hydrothermal activity and the formation of Lost City.
