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.
In a new paper we describe the fault system responsible for the 1948 Aşgabat earthquake in Turkmenistan with a magnitude of Ms7.3.
On 19.01.2024, Marcel Thielmann will lead the Geophysical Model Generator Workshop from 12-17h
Compact course for MSc.-students 26 Feb-01 Mar, 2024. Topics: Photogrammetry, Structure-from-Motion and Virtual Geology/3D outcrops. Teaching language will English; the course will be held by Marko Vrabec from Uni Ljubljana.
On 2023-12-13 Christoph Grützner will give an online talk on the Active tectonics of the Alps-Dinarides junction in the TSK seminar series.
Jakob Stubenrauch received the Graduate Award Geosciences 2023 of the faculty for his MSc thesis "Active tectonics and tectonic geomorphology in the region of the Fella-Sava Fault". Congratulations!
In a new study of Holocene earthquakes in Cusco, Peru, an international team combines dating of moraines with paleoseismological studies. The Tambomachay fault caused at least three major earthquakes in the last 9,000 years.
