Lithospheric Architecture and Precambrian Geology of the Hoggar and Adjacent Areas

Mohamed Hamoudi is Full Professor of Geophysics at the Faculty of Earth Sciences, Houari Boumediene University of Science and Technology in Algiers, Algeria, and Visiting Researcher at GFZ in Potsdam, Germany. Professor Mohamed has published over 100 articles in international peer-reviewed ISI journals and book chapters.Abderrahmane Bendaoud is a full professor of Geology at the Faculty of Earth Sciences, Houari Boumediene University of Science and Technology in Algiers, Algeria. Professor Bendaoud has contributed to research on the geodynamic evolution of the Eburnean, Pan-African and Hercynian orogenies, multi-source geological mapping, the nature and evolution of the continental crust, geochemistry and the application of mineral equilibrium modelling techniques to study metamorphic processes in UHT, HT and HP metamorphic rocks. He has published over 60 articles in international peer-reviewed ISI journals and book chapters.Jean-Louis Bodinier headed the Géosciences Montpellier laboratory at the University of Montpellier 2 (France). He is currently Emeritus Professor at Mohammed VI Polytechnic University (Morocco) He has extensive experience in the study of the structure, composition and evolution of the continental lithospheric mantle, and of interactions between the estthenosphere and lithosphere (metasomatism, igneous refertilisation and thermochemical erosion), based on the study of mantle rocks (massifs and inclusions in lavas). His research also focuses on (1) the distribution of trace elements in the Earth's mantle, from the submineral scale (microphases) to geochemical reservoirs and (2) the simulation of geochemical fractionation and isotopic decoupling linked to magma transport and interactions between molten rocks in the upper mantle. He has published over 150 papers in international peer-reviewed ISI journals.Khadidja Ouzegane is a full professor in the Faculty of Earth Sciences at the Houari Boumediene University of Science and Technology in Algiers, Algeria. She is a member of the Algerian Academy of Science and Technology. Professor Ouzegane has contributed to research on the nature and evolution of the continental crust, the geochemistry and distribution of rare earth elements in carbonatites, and the application of mineral equilibrium modelling techniques to study metamorphic processes in the Archean and Precambrian rocks of the Hoggar (southern Algeria). She has published over 100 articles in international peer-reviewed ISI journals.
