Applications of geophysics to structural and tectonic problems, paleomagnetism and plate motions, deformation fabrics and tectonics of active accretionary prisms and mélanges, magnetic mineral diagenesis and environmental magnetism of marine sediments, emplacement and deformation fabrics in granitic rocks, magnetic anisotropy, biomagnetism, paleomagnetism of deformed rocks. Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and near-surface geophysics (seismic, electrical resistivity) applied to geological, hydrological, and forensic studies.
