The continental collision between India and Eurasia to the light of the recent passive source seismic experiments in Tibet

El área de Física de la Tierra, del departamento de Física Teórica y del Cosmos de la Facultad de Ciencias de Granada, tiene el gusto de invitarles a la conferencia titulada:
"The continental collision between India and Eurasia to the light of the recent passive source seismic experiments in Tibet"

que impartirá, el Dr. Yun Chen del Solid Geophysics in the Institute of Geology and Geophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, in Beijing. (China), el próximo día 2 de junio, a las 11 horas de la mañana, en la sala de conferencias de la Facultad de Ciencias (planta baja del edificio de Matemáticas).

Esta conferencia se puede considerar como el resumen y cierre del seminario
"Seismic Wave Propagation and Imaging of the Earth’s Crust and Upper Mantle"

organizado por el mester Geofísica y Meteorología (GEOMET), que se celebrara los días 26, 27 y 28 de mayo, de 10 a 12 horas, en el seminario de la segunda planta del edificio de Matemáticas, y al que están invitados todos los interesados.

Talk Topic
The youngest and arguably most spectacular of all the continent-continent collisional belts on Earth is the Himalayan-Tibetan orogeny. It is part of the greater Himalayan-Alpine system that extends from the Mediterranean Sea in the west to the Sumatra arc of Indonesia in the east over a distance of more than 7000 km. For a better understanding of key issues of the continental collision between India and Eurasia, many geophysical projects have been performed in Tibet and surrounding areas in the last decades. In this talk we focus on the current state of geophysical survey in Tibet, the passive-source seismic experiments carried out by the working group of the speaker, and the new results concerning the geodynamic process of continental collision achieved in recent years.
