Vsebina:

Potresna geologija zajema vrsto metod za preučevanje aktivnih prelomov in potresnih virov tako na površju kot tudi pod njim. V okviru predmeta bodo predstavljeni osnovni pojmi in sodobni načini preučevanja aktivne tektonike, potresov in njihovih virov ter potresne nevarnosti s poudarkom na interdisciplinarnosti raziskav.

Podrobneje:

• Osnovni pojmi:
  • • Osnove tektonike plošč
  • • Načini deformacije, prelomi in gube
  • • Rast prelomov
  • • Struktura pri površju
  • • Globlja struktura
  • • Neotektonika
  • • Aktivni prelomi in zmožni prelomi
  • • Potresni viri
  • • Potresi in potresni cikel
  • • Aseizmično lezenje
  • • Posledice in učinki potresov v naravnem okolju
• Metode preučevanja v potresni geologiji:
  • • Strukturno-geološko kartiranje
  • • Tektonska geomorfologija
  • • Preučevanje kvartarja
  • • Geofizika
  • • Paleoseizmologija
  • • Arheoseizmologija
  • • Tektonska geodezija
  • • Seizmologija
• Postopki definiranja aktivnih struktur
• Aktivni prelomi in potresni viri v Sloveniji, Evropi in globalno

Objectives and competences:

Students will acquire the skills and knowledge necessary for a comprehensive understanding and analysis of active tectonic processes and related deformations and earthquakes. They will gain knowledge of modern methods for identifying and characterizing active faults and seismic sources. They will learn to obtain geological and other data for seismic hazard assessments. Students will understand the importance of interdisciplinarity and integrating results from various fields, which can be applied both in earthquake geology research and in practical applications related to analysis of geological conditions for spatial management. They will become familiar with practical case studies and gain hands-on experience to more effectively transfer the acquired knowledge to their professional environment.

Intended learning outcomes:

• Mastery of professional terminology
• Understanding of various methods and their application in earthquake geology research
• Ability to identify active faults and seismic sources
