In a new paper, we use two different dating techniques to show that two of the main fault in the Eastern Alps were active during the Pleistocene.
In a new paper we explain how to (geologically) date past earthquakes.
The Society for the Promotion of Geosciences (GFG) has purchased a rock box as mobile educational material.
Where did earthquakes occur? How large were they? Which tectonic faults caused them? How strong were the ground motions and where?
Tsukamoto et al. (2024) used luminescence measurements on quartz to investigate the seismic activity of the Atotsugawa Fault in Japan. Erick Prince from our group was involved in the study.
For his research on the evolution of the Dinarides, Dr. Philipp Balling receives the Faculty Doctoral Prize in Geosciences 2024. Congratulations!
In a new paper, we use luminescence and electron spin resonance dating on fault gouges to show that the Periadriatic Fault was active in the last 1 million years.
The field course on Regional Tectonics took place in the Alps from 6.-11. August, 2024. This course is part of MSc. module "MGEO116 - Concepts of regional tectonics". Here you will find some impressions.
In a new paper, Heydari et al. date the latest activity of the North Tehran Fault, Iran.
Christoph Grützner has run his second field campaign to study the activity of the plate boundary in Guatemala.
The Sava Fault is one of the most active faults in Slovenia. In a new article, Jamšek Rupnik et al. present new data on the geometry of the fault and a preliminary slip rate estimate. Our working group was involved in the work.
Christoph Grützner carried out the first field campaign for his project on the plate boundary in Guatemala.
