Guido Gianni

Guido currently hold a senior research position at the Institute of Geophysics of the Czech Academy of Sciences. His research focuses on geodynamic processes in convergent and intraplate settings, integrating tectonic, magmatic, sedimentary, and mantle records. He employs an integrative approach that combines geological analysis with geophysical data and plate kinematic reconstructions and, more recently, analog and numerical modeling. Since completing his Ph.D. at the Universidad de Buenos Aires (UBA) in 2016, he has authored 58 peer-reviewed articles and several book chapters. His work is characterized by close interdisciplinary collaboration with physicists, geophysicists (including specialists in potential field methods), and seismologists, fostering integrated approaches to understanding Earth’s dynamic systems.

Current research avenues:

– Tectonics and geodynamics of non-collisional mountain belts

 – Links between tectonic-magmatic events and deep mantle  records
