Research Profile

PROF. DR. CLAUDIA ANNA-MARIA TREPMANN

  • Professor of Geological Deformation and Transformation of Rocks, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich (LMU), Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Luisenstraße 37, 80333 München,
    phone:+49 89 2180 6544, E-Mail: claudia.trepmann@lmu.de

Research Interests

  • Episodic deformation at transient stress conditions below hypocentral depths and the implications on the rheology of the lithosphere
  • Interplay between deformation and mineral reactions
  • Deformation and mineral reactions in subduction zones and the implications on the burial and exhumation processes
  • Impact geology: shock effects and how do rocks and minerals react on extreme loading rates
  • Quantitative microfabric analysis using polarized light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission microscopy and related analytical techniques

Methods

  • Field Geology, Polarized Light Microscopy, Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Electron back scatter diffraction (EBSD) technique, Focussed Ion Beam (FIB), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Cathodoluminescence Microscopy, Experimental Rock Deformation (Griggs-type deformation apparatus)
