Negatively charged ions in the deep Earth : quantifying the chemical speciation of F and N in silicate melts and phases
Nitrogen and fluorine are essential volatile elements to study in the bulk silicate Earth (BSE) due to their respective influence over the onset of habitability on Earth or over physical and chemical properties of the phases which contain them. Nitrogen is abnormally depleted in the BSE relative to CI chondrite, while fluorine is abnormally enriched, hence questions arise about their chemical speciation and storage mechanisms within planetary reservoirs.
The speciation of nitrogen in high pressure silicate melts was studied using solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and Raman spectroscopy and was found to be heavily influenced by oxygen fugacity. The former technique provided superior results in quantifying the abundance of individual species and higher sensitivity, however it requires ¹⁵N enrichment, low-Fe samples and performs only bulk analysis, while the latter was found to be an efficient in situ technique regardless of sample composition, but it struggled at detecting low-abundance N species.
The speciation of fluorine in silicate melts was studied via NMR spectroscopy at BSE-like concentrations, thanks to this techniques high F sensitivity. F was found to be binding solely with Mg at atmospheric pressure, and this speciation remains predominant until c.a. 8 GPa, where relevant quantities of F start binding with Ca. This is likely due to the changing coordination number of the major components of the melt, but a change in the coordination of fluorine itself might also be occurring.
The ordering of fluoride and hydroxide in the framework of humite group minerals was studied via NMR spectroscopy and computational modelling. The incorporation of one F and one OH anion in neighbouring sites was found to be favoured relative to the incorporation of two identical ions, thanks to the formation of a hydrogen bond. This likely explains the extended stability field of clinohumite when it is F rich

Improving Students’ Learning Aspirations Beyond Post-Primary Education : A First Account of Two Non-Formal Education Programmes in Middle-Income Countries
Non-formal education programmes are active in a number of developing countries. These programmes offer vulnerable students an opportunity to pursue their education although they were excluded for various reasons from the formal education systems. This paper examines the impact of two programmes (one in Mauritius, and one in Thailand) on their participants’ aspirations towards learning. We develop a methodology to measure the perception of students regarding their learning experience. More than a third of them, for example, believe that there is no barrier to their education. Most acknowledge the role of their teachers in raising their aspirations towards their educational achievement. When compared to male students, female students seem to value more the role of their education
Education in post-Reformation Scotland : Andrew Melville and the University of St Andrews, 1560-1606
Andrew Melville (1545-1622) was the leader of the Presbyterian wing of the Scottish
Kirk between 1574 and 1607, and he and his colleagues were a perpetual irritant to
James VI and I in his attempts to establish a royal and Episcopal dominance over the
Kirk. Yet much of Melville’s reputation has been based on the seventeenth-century
Presbyterian historical narratives written by the likes of James Melville (Andrew’s
nephew) and David Calderwood. These partisan accounts formed the basis of modern
historiography in Thomas M’Crie’s monumentally influential Life of Andrew Melville.
Modern historians broadly agree that Melville’s portrayal as a powerful and decisive
church leader in these narratives is greatly exaggerated, and that he was at best an
influential voice in the Kirk who was quickly marginalised by the adult James VI.
However, only James Kirk has commented at any length on Melville’s other role in
Jacobean Scotland—that of developing and reforming the Scottish universities.
Melville revitalised the near-defunct Glasgow University between 1574 and 1580, and
from 1580 to 1607 was principal of St Mary’s College, St Andrews, Scotland’s only
divinity college. He was also rector of the University of St Andrews between 1590
and 1597. This thesis provides a detailed account of Melville’s personal role in the
reform and expansion of the Scottish universities. This includes an analysis of his
direct work at Glasgow, but focuses primarily on St Andrews, using the untapped
archival sources held there and at the Scottish National Library and Archives to create
a detailed picture of the development of the University after the Reformation. This
thesis also evaluates the intellectual content of Melville’s reform programme, both as
it developed during his time in Paris, Poitiers and Geneva, and as we see it in action in
St Andrews
