معرفی
PD Dr. Alexandre Kounov serves as a Lecturer in Earth Sciences at the Department of Environmental Sciences, Faculty of Humanities and Natural Sciences, University of Basel, Switzerland. His research focuses on tectonic evolution, particularly in the Balkan region including Bulgaria and Serbia, with office located at Bernoullistrasse 30, 4056 Basel.
Dr. Kounov's research encompasses several key areas in geological sciences:
- Regional tectonic evolution of Southeastern Europe
- Structural geology and mountain building processes
- Metamorphic petrology and protolith analysis
- Geodynamic modeling of geological formations
- Paleozoic to Cretaceous geological evolution
His scholarly work demonstrates consistent productivity with publications through 2025, primarily in Geologica Balcanica. His research combines field observations with geological analysis to understand the complex tectonic history of the Balkan Peninsula. Recent publications examine the Kraishte area spanning southwestern Bulgaria and southeastern Serbia, the Rhodopean geological formations, and Lower Paleozoic metamorphic units of the Central Balkan Zone.
As part of the University of Basel's Department of Environmental Sciences, Dr. Kounov contributes to research on Earth's complex systems and their historical evolution. His work provides valuable insights into geological processes that inform broader understanding of environmental changes and Earth system dynamics.
