Philip Christopher England FRS (born 30 April 1951) is a British geophysicist and former Chair of Geology at the Department of Earth Sciences , University of Oxford , whose research centres upon the evolution, deformation and metamorphism of mountain ranges and the development of island arcs . He has widely used applied mathematics to model mountain building, proving that they behave as extremely viscous fluids.
