Learning Objectives

PRINCIPI E MONITORAGGIO DEI PROCESSI GEODINAMICI
The course aims to provide adequate knowledge and understanding of the geodynamic processes active in different tectonic settings.
TETTONICA ATTIVA CON LABORATORIO DI FOTOGEOLOGIA
Active tectonics: Provide appropriate knowledge and skills useful to understand active geodynamic processes in different geological domains. The goal is obtained by the analysis of crustal architectures in different tectonic domains, by the collection of several information provided by different geological, geophysical and geodetic subjects; furthermore provide the technics to analyse surficial and deep information, characterization of local and remote stress field and their relationship, and modelling of geodynamic contest. Photogeology: Provide skills useful to the correct management of territorial aerophotogrammetric survey. At the end of the class the student will gain the skill to deal with geological themes through the application of morphostructural technique.
