Hydrogeology<br />

Main research interests of the Hydrogeology Group are the fate of organic<br />

contaminants in the subsurface and the development of novel methods to remediate<br />

soil and gro<strong>und</strong>water contaminations. These areas are closely connected as the<br />

application of effective clean-up technologies relies on a detailed <strong>und</strong>erstanding of<br />

the chemical and physical processes in the subsurface.<br />
