The course aims to provide adequate knowledge and understanding of geodynamic processes active in distinct tectonic contexts through the use of velocity vectors.
Acquisition of ability to perform geodetic surveys with GNSS and Total Station receivers of topographic elements in areas affected by tectonic deformation.
Frontal lessons, exercises, final excursion on field
Geodynamic processes, global tectonics, tectonic structures related to volcanism and seismicity activity, collisional tectonic domains, subduction tectonic domains, continental rift domains, geodesy.
