My research interests lie in the fields of structural geology and tectonics and focus on determining the structural history and tectonic evolution of extended orogens, mainly in the Betic-Rif-Alboran region, between the Iberia and Africa plates. My research projects are strongly field based with field observations and geological mapping as a foundation and supported with microstructural analysis and petrologic thermobarometry. Major themes include special emphasis on large-scale intracontinental extension, the relationship between faulting and seismicity and the analysis of mylonites and other deformed rocks in ductile and brittle shear zones. |
