About Naomi
Dr. Naomi Tucker serves as an Adjunct Research Fellow with the School of Earth and Oceans at the University of Western Australia. Previously, she held the position of Lecturer in Earth Science and Early Career Researcher in metamorphic geology from 2019 to 2025. She completed her Doctor of Philosophy in Earth Science at the University of Adelaide from 2014 to 2018, focusing her doctoral thesis on the metamorphic and crustal evolution of Australian-Antarctic Proterozoic margins. Tucker's career at UWA includes contributions to the Centre for Exploration Targeting and leadership in educational initiatives such as micro-credentials on Practical Earth Science Education and Antarctica Gondwanas. She supervises Honours and Masters research projects in Earth Sciences, including topics like petrochronology in the Savannah Ni-Cu-Co Camp.
Her research interests encompass metamorphic petrology, crustal evolution, geochronology, and isotope geochemistry, with emphasis on Archean-Proterozoic Australia and East Antarctica. Key projects investigate Archean metamorphism to constrain early Earth geodynamics in the Narryer Terrane of Western Australia and the Fennoscandian Shield in Finland; development of in situ petrochronology methods for tectonic reconstructions in polymetamorphic terranes; long-lived circulation systems in subduction zones using metamorphic rocks; subglacial geology of East Antarctica; and microscale garnet-carbonate-sulfide-gold interactions in high-grade terranes. Tucker has produced 17 research outputs, including 'P-T-t-d constraints on post-orogenic deformation and coeval mineralisation in the Archean-Paleoproterozoic transition zone of the southern West African Craton' (Journal of Structural Geology, 2026), 'Authigenic titanite constraints on fast Mesoproterozoic basin formation in hot Antarctic crust' (Precambrian Research, 2025), 'Detrital zircon geochronology and sedimentary provenance of the fossiliferous Ediacara Member, South Australia' (Australian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2025), 'Detrital zircon and apatite reveal Paleoproterozoic rifting along the eastern margin of the Yilgarn Craton' (Precambrian Research, 2024), and 'New metamorphic constraints on the Nova-Bollinger Ni–Cu deposit, Fraser Zone, Western Australia' (Australian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2024). Her work supports UN Sustainable Development Goals related to quality education, industry innovation, sustainable cities, and life on land.
