معرفی
Dr. Humaad Ghani is a Lecturer in Structural Geology and Geothermics at the Department of Structural Geology and Geothermics, Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, Germany. His research focuses on the structural modeling and temporal evolution of fold and thrust belts, integrating geo- and thermochronology with structural geological methods. He has held academic and research roles at institutions including the University of Potsdam and Bahria University.
Education:
- PhD in Geology, University of Potsdam (2014–2019)
- MPhil in Geology, University of Peshawar (2006–2011)
- BSc in Geology, University of Peshawar (2004–2008)
Research Interests: Dr. Ghani specializes in the structural evolution of fold and thrust belts, particularly in the Himalayas and Pakistan. His work combines thermochronology with tectonic analysis to unravel spatio-temporal patterns in regions like the Kohat and Kirthar belts. Key themes include exhumation processes, tectono-magmatic interactions, and Cenozoic metamorphic overprint.
Publications: Over 15 peer-reviewed articles since 2009, focusing on Himalayan tectonics, structural analysis, and thermochronological studies. Recent works emphasize Paleoproterozoic magmatic evolution in the western Himalayas and Oligocene-Pliocene structural dynamics in Pakistan.
Professional Experience:
- Lecturer, University of Göttingen (2020–present)
- Guest Researcher and Research Scientist, University of Potsdam (2018–2021)
- Lecturer, Bahria University (2010–2014)
Affiliation: Based at the Geoscience Center of the University of Göttingen, his work contributes to interdisciplinary studies in structural geology and geothermics.
