Bertram Uunk

Dr. Bertram Uunk is a Lecturer at the Faculty of Science, VU Amsterdam, within the Department of Geology and Geochemistry. His work focuses on tectonic evolution, metamorphic processes, and fluid dynamics in geoscientific contexts.

• Active in Earth and Planetary Sciences, with expertise in Tectonic Evolution, Blueschist, and Fluid Inclusion Analysis.
• Teaches courses like Metamorphic Geology and fieldwork programs in Spain.
• Collaborates with researchers like J. Wijbrans, F. Brouwer, and K. Kuiper on geological timeframes and subduction processes.

His recent work investigates 40Ar/39Ar dating of mica crystals and fluid migration histories through innovative crushing techniques. Publications highlight his contributions to understanding Cycladic blueschist units, rock exhumation, and subduction zone detachment.
