O autorze

David Colin Tanner is a researcher at the Leibniz Institute for Applied Geophysics, where his research focuses on structural modeling and seismics. He has also been a lecturer at Jacobs University and University of Gottingen, as well as a researcher at GFZ Potsdam, among others. He has chaired multiple sessions on faults at the EGU conference in Vienna. Christian Brandes is a researcher and lecturer at the Institute of Geology at the University of Hannover. His research interests include interaction of tectonics and sedimentation, geodynamics of island-arcs, burial history and temperature evolution of sedimentary basins, paleoseismology, and evolution of fold-and-thrust belts. He lectures on tectonics, modeling, Earth history, mapping, and regional geology.
