Eric Salomon

Eric Salomon is a Researcher at the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg in the Department of Geography and Earth Sciences, affiliated with the Chair of Geology (Prof. Dr. Stollhofen). His work focuses on sedimentology, structural geology, and diagenesis with emphasis on fluid flow dynamics in rift basins, particularly in Namibia and Greenland.

• Key Research Areas: Sedimentology, Structural Geology, Diagenesis, Tectonics, Fluid Flow in Sedimentary Basins
• Recent Work: Studies on calcite vein formation in porous sandstones, heterogeneous compaction in aeolian reservoirs, and fault-controlled fluid circulation in rift systems.
• Collaborations: International partnerships including research institutions in Norway, Denmark, and Turkey.

His current research addresses diagenetic processes in the Huab Basin (Namibia) and NE Greenland rift systems, including projects funded by the DFG (e.g., "Compaction-dominated diagenesis in Namibia").
