Solid Earth Geophysics LAB @UNICT

Seismology with laboratory

Prof. Andrea Cannata and Prof. Giovanni Distefano

Class content: The main objective of the course is to provide students with basic knowledge of earthquake physics, the effects of earthquakes and seismic risk assessment.

Geodesy and remote sensing

Prof. Francesco Panzera

Class content: Provide knowledge and skills in the field of geodesy with particular reference to satellite and terrestrial geodetic measurements, and to gravimetric measurements. The physical knowledge necessary for the study of ground deformations in a tectonic and volcanic environment.

Physics of Volcanism

Prof. Andrea Cannata

Class content: Provide knowledge and skills in the field of volcanology with particular reference to the physical processes that occur in a volcanic environment, including the genesis of magmas, their rise and eruptive dynamics.

Physics of the Earth with laboratory

Prof. Andrea Cannata and Prof. Giovanni Distefano

Class content: The main objective is to provide students with the basic notions of geophysics and the tools necessary to process and use geophysical data.

Marine Geophysics and Oceanography
