Last week three members of the AG “Glacier System & Natural Hazards” went on a field trip on the Kanderfirn glacier (Swiss Alps) to conduct surface mass balance measurements for the past winter season.
The field trip was led by Dr. Alexander Groos, who is monitoring the glacier mass balance ...
In March, a group of members of the AG "Glacier Systems & Natural Hazards" and "Remote Sensing & GIS" of the Institute of Geography led a field expedition in Cordillera Darwin, Chile. The expedition had the goal of exploring the area surrounding marine-terminating and land-terminating glacie...
Within the Glacier Systems & Natural Hazards group of the Institute of Geography, a field expedition was conducted in September 2022 to Kanderfirn Glacier in the Bernese Alps of Switzerland. The aim of this field work was to quantify surface mass loss in the frontal areas as well as to map the h...
In der Arbeitsgruppe von Prof. Bräuning hat im Januar 2023 ein Forschungsprojekt mit dem Titel „Reconstruction of past hydroclimate variability in Iran from a multi-centennial and multi-parameter juniper tree-ring network“ begonnen. Ziel ist es, mithilfe eines Netzwerks von Jahrringchronologien die ...
Christian Sommer (Betreuer: Prof. Dr. Matthias Braun) hat seine Dissertation zum Thema “Glacier mass change and volume reconstruction from remote sensing acquisitions in the European Alps and subpolar & polar regions” erfolgreich verteidigt.
