CEED is a cross disciplinary research centre and covers a great diversity of geoscience disciplines including geology, physics, mathematics, chemistry, palaeoclimatology, palaeontology, tectonics, palaeomagnetism, geodynamics, seismology, mineral physics, planetology, computational and atmospheric science.
CEED's research is focused on six main themes with underlying subthemes. Each theme is studied by a dedicated group of researchers led by a team leader, but many research activities are also developed across groups.
The centre started in 2013 with about 20 full-time scientists and postdoctoral researches, and is building on a large network of collaborations.
Management
The center is headed by a Director and an Assistant Director.
- Director: Trond H. Torsvik, Professor, CEED/Deptartment of Geosciences
