Main function
Study about the structural geology, Neotectonic, active tectonic and Tectonophysical processes which constructed by a combination of methods of geology, geophysics and seismology. Applied research results for the seismic hazard assessment, determine the tectonic premise for seismic risk, tsunami pontential, earthquakes prediction and minimize the disaster of geohazard such as; landslides, liquefaction, induce - earthquakes.... Implement the research on tectonicphysics domain about lithosphere process for whole of Viet Nam territory and the surrounding area.
Study of the geological condition and tectonic process which provide the scientific criterial for tsunami and earthquake hazard assessment. Study the physical and geological characteristics at the high seismic potential areas for modeling and classification of the seismic source. Develop methods in tectonophysics research and application of a modern method such as; GIS, GPS, SAR ...
Carry out research on earthquake forecasting of seismiciy region based on the general principles of geomorphology, Neotectonic, modern tectonics and method of classification of the Earth’s crust.
