10th PATA Days, Chile

Hornitos Resort Hornitos, Chile

PATAis the most relevant workshop on paleoseismology and active tectonics of the INQUA Focus Group “Earthquake Geology and Seismic Hazard (IFG EGSHaz)”. For first time in South America, we are honored to welcome the 10th PATA days in the hyperarid coastal Atacama Desert, located in the active continental margin formed by the subduction of the Nazca Plate beneath the South American Plate; a unique tectonic setting for the assessment of megathrust episodes, upper-plate paleo-earthquakes, and paleotsunami records, and their relationship […]

Understanding earthquakes using the geological record

The Royal Society, London 6-9 Carlton House Terrace, London, United Kingdom

This meeting will focus on the interplay between deformation, metamorphism, and rheology of the lithosphere. Modern geophysical research is revealing increasingly complex and spatially variable fault zone behaviours. The properties and deformation of the ductile crust and mantle are controversial, as is their influence on the overlying faults. Current models indicate a close coupling between metamorphism, rheology and deformation, but remain poorly constrained by geological observations. The meeting will unite international experts in geodesy, seismology, metamorphism and rheology to characterise and […]

***CANCELLED*** 18th Symposium on Tectonics, Structural Geology and Crystalline Geology (TSK)

Cologne Cologne, Germany

The 18th Symposium on Tectonics, Structural Geology and Crystalline Geology, for short “TSK 18” will take place  from 16th – 20th March at the Institute for Geology and Mineralogy of the University of Cologne. All European working groups in the fields of Tectonics, Structural Geology and Crystalline Geology are cordially invited to join us at the next TSK meeting. As one of the foundation ideas of  TSK, we intend to offer young and early career geoscientists a stage for their […]
