Within the Group Molecular Paleoclimatology we work in the following research fields:

Molecular Paleoclimatology

ship
coring
fire

We investigate sedimentary archives from oceans, lakes and wetlands as well as archaeological deposits by molecular and isotopic methods as recorders of past hydrologic and biospheric changes linked to oceanic and atmospheric processes as well as to fire occurrence and study human-climate-environment interactions on a wide range of time-scales.

Carbon Cycling

car
sampling
samples

We investigate organic fractions and, in particular, lipid biomarkers and their compound-specific isotope (13C, D/H, 14C) compositions from terrestrial, fluvial, and oceanic samples to study transport and preservation of organic fractions and carbon cycling in river systems, wetlands and the oceans.

Laboratory

To conduct these studies we operate a dedicated organic-geochemical preparative laboratory equipped with various analytical systems including 2 gas-isotope masspectrometers for compound-specific isotope analyses. To learn more about the laboratory, click here.
