Institut für Geologie

Institut für Geologie

Research at the Department of Geology focuses on pure and applied research into both ductile/brittle lithospheric and Earth-surface processes. Field-based geology and quantitative modeling of geodynamic processes form the foundation of academic and applied Earth sciences research, in particular in petroleum geology and seismology. A close collaboration between research groups focuses on integrated geodynamics/tectonics and sedimentology/stratigraphy.

Institutsleitung: Michael Wagreich, Bernhard Grasemann (Stv.), Daniel Le Heron (Stv.)
