Research interests
Global change:
climate change during the last 40,000 years and in the near future;
Hydrology
and climate; groundwater as an archive of paleoclimate, in particular:
paleotemperatures based on concentrations of dissolved noble gases;
dynamics
of groundwater flow on all time scales by using noble gases of
tritiogenic,
radiogenic and nucleogenic origin and other tracers in groundwater;
processes
in the unsaturated zone: composition of ground gases, thermodynamics;
surface
water-groundwater interactions; water-air gas exchange; water/rock
interactions,
surface exposure dating with cosmogenic nuclides; accumulation rates of
ocean sediments; interplanetary dust particles; mathematical modeling
of
tracer distributions in natural systems, environmental science in
general,
social and economic implications.
