Marine Ingenieurgeologie
Leader: Tobias Mörz
Marine engineering geology in Germany is a young and evolving interdisciplinary field. It incooperates parts of soil mechanics, engineering
of coastal and offshore constructions,
geotechnical engineering and marine geology. Fundamental research of this field at continental margins helps to describe and quantify mass transport, turnover and deposition
phenomenas. Examples in our working group are the evaluation of slope stabilities, laboratory determination of hydraulic conductivities
and consolidation of marine sediments. In our more applied work we will focus on accompanying studies of new and innovative
applied geotechnical methods (e.g. new methods in pipe- and cable laying).
- Slope and rise of the West Antarctic Peninsula
- continental slope offshore Central America
- applied geotechnical onshore and offshore field studies in Germany and Europe (more...)
