The talk will highlight the research of our working group together with scientists from the Leibniz Institute for Applied Geophysics (LIAG) in Hanover, Germany, since 2021. We use new dating methods that allow us to constrain the timing of paleoearthquakes along the eastern part of the Periadriatic Fault System for the first time. The project is part of the SPP2017 - Mountain Building Processes in 4DExternal link.
