  • Hans Thybo (* 19. Februar 1954 in Aarhus) ist ein dänischer Geowissenschaftler. Er ist Vizepräsident der Königlich Dänischen Akademie der Wissenschaften. Von April 2015 bis April 2017 war er Präsident der European Geosciences Union, momentan ist er wie bereits von 2014 bis 2015 deren Vizepräsident. Seit 2001 war Hans Thybo Professor für Geophysik an der Universität Kopenhagen. Seine Entlassung durch die Universitätsführung Ende 2016 rief Protest von zahlreichen Wissenschaftlern hervor. 2004 wurde er Fellow der Royal Astronomical Society und ordentliches Mitglied der Academia Europaea. 2010 wurde er zum Mitglied der Norwegischen Akademie der Wissenschaften gewählt. Thybo hat sich mit der Tektonik der Kontinente, insbesondere der Lithosphärenplatten Europas, beschäftigt.Er war am Forschungsprojekt beteiligt.Mit anderen Autoren verfasste er verschiedene Übersichtsarbeiten, u. a.: * Irina M. Artemieva, Walter D. Mooney, Edward Perchuc, Hans Thybo: Processes of lithosphere evolution: new evidence on the structure of the continental crust and uppermost mantle. In: Tectonophysics (= Structure of the continental lithosphere and upper mantle). Band 358, Nr. 1–4, 14. November 2002, S. 1–15, doi:10.1016/S0040-1951(02)00530-9. * Irina M.

He is a professor at the Eurasia Institute of Earth Sciences at Istanbul Technical University and at the School of Earth Sciences at China University of Geosciences, Wuhan. Until a fusion in 2007 he was elected Head of Department at the Geological Institute and member of the board of Geocenter Copenhagen. He was Professor at Department of Geosciences and Natural Resource Management until he was dismissed from his Chair in 2016. The dismissal was later found illegal and violating employment agreements by an arbitration court and Thybo received a modest economic compensation, but the University of Copenhagen did not re-employ Thybo, nor did the University sanction his accusers. The internationally agreed principle of tenure for university professors does not apply to universities in Denmark. Thybo has earlier been associated with Technische Hogeschool Delft and Stanford University. Thybo is President of International Lithosphere Program (ILP) og was earlier President for European Geosciences Union, where he also held posts as General Secretary and President for the Seismology Division. He has been chair for the Danish national committee for ICSU (International Council for Science). He is currently a member of Committee for Freedom and Responsibility in Science of ISC (International Science Council). He is member of and was earlier Vicepresident of Royal Danish Academy of Science and Letters. He has received the 1000 Talents Award from China and he is fellow of Royal Astronomical Society, London and Geological Society of America. He is elected member of Academia Europaea, the Norwegian Academy of Sciences and Letters and Danish Academy of Natural Sciences, and he has been Danish representative to International Council for Science (ICSU). Hans Thybo has been leader of several geoscientific research programmes and he has been field expedition leader to e.g. the ice sheet in Greenland, east Africa and Siberia. He initiated several pan-European research programmes with east-west collaboration after the end of the cold war. His research includes the discovery of ca. 2 billion year old plate tectonic structures, the fundamental Mid-Lithospheric Discontinuity of the lithospheric mantle, the presence of molten rocks at the Core-Mantle Discontinuity at ca. 3000 km depth below Siberia, a new model for the formation of the economically important sedimentary basins, Presence of strong seismic anisotropy in cratonic crust with the implication that crust and mantle have been coupled for billions of years, and the presence of a hitherto unknown type of crust in Tibet (en)
