Dr. Maria Giuditta Fellin

I am a technical scientist specialized in low-temperature thermochronology. I use fission-track and (U-Th)/He dating on zircon and apatite to study the exhumation evolution of mountain belts. I am particularly interested at the links among erosion, mountain-building processes and long-term landscape evolution. I am based at the Institute of Geochemistry and Petrology and I work within the Earth Surface Dynamics Group of the Geological Institute.
