Research Interests

Shah Syed Tallataf Hussain has recently completed his PhD degree at the Institute of Tibetan Plateau Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences and serving as a Lecturer at Department of Earth- Sciences, COMSATS University, Abbottabad Campus- Pakistan since 2011.

Shah does research in Exploration Geophysics, seismology (BB seismic installation), Magnetotelluric- sounding, Magnetics, Dendrochronology, Electric and tectonics. His most key publication is 'Electrical resistivity structures and tectonic implications of Main-Karakorum Thrust (MKT) in the western Himalayas: NNE Pakistan'.

Currently he is researching on Dendrochronology & the mineral prospecting in the northern Pakistan using magnetic & Geochemistry data.
