New seismological instruments in the field

New seismological instruments in the field

This project investigates the performance of newly developed rotational sensors in the field. We do measurements in Germany but also in volcanically active

Climate Change and Human Evolution

Climate Change and Human Evolution

The goal of this project is to test hypothesized linkages between climate and mammalian (including hominin) evolution in tropical-subtropical eastern Afric

3D Point Clouds

3D Point Clouds

With growing computational capabilities, especially GPUs, improved algorithms, and better workflows, it is now straight forward to generate 3D point clouds

Archaeological prospecting

Archaeological prospecting

This project investigates the potential of near-surface geophysical tools in archaeological prospecting. In addition to employ new field methods and acquis

Climate Control on Mountain Relief

Climate Control on Mountain Relief

The ERC-funded research project "Climatic Control on Mountain Erosion and Relief " (COOLER) aims to quantify the feedbacks between tectonic processes in th

Petrology – The Evolution of Rocks

Petrology – The Evolution of Rocks

The P-T history of rocks is evaluated on the basis of thermomechanical models in order not only to reconstruct mountain-belt history but also predict futur


Low-Temperature Thermochronology

Low-Temperature Thermochronology

The Thermochronology group uses low-temperature thermochronology to quantify timing and rates of exhumation processes on hundreds of thousands to tens of m
