Scientific-Disciplinary Group

04/GEOS-02 - Paleontology, Stratigraphic Geology And Sedimentology, Structural Geology And Tectonics

Description

The research involves the collection of literature data, original field data, and various types of remote sensing data (aerial photographs, satellite data, DEMs, LiDAR, etc.), as well as geomorphological field survey data, integrating them into a coherent framework functional to the production of CARG mapping. Data collection must comply with CARG standards and be delivered in formats and atscales suitable and compatible with the completion of geological cartography the related databases. Throughout the activities, the candidate will be required to interact with the research coordinators and with the surveyors of the exposed successions in the different working areas, while planning and supervising specific analytical activities. Methodological aspects of the research and the results, even if partial, will be presented at national and international conferences and will contribute to scientificpapers.
