Sedimentary geology in general and reservoircharacterisation:<br />

• Linking source and sink in the Ruwenzori Mountains and adjacent rift basins,<br />

Uganda: landscape evolution and the sedimentary record of extreme uplift:<br />

Subproject B3 of DFG Research Group RIFT-LINK “Rift Dynamics, Uplift and<br />

Climate Change: Interdisciplinary Research Linking Asthenosphere,<br />

Lithosphere, Biosphere and Atmosphere” (DFG HI 643/7-1)<br />

• Volcaniclastic successions at the southern margin of the Transmexican<br />

Volcanic Belt as witness of the Miocene plate reorganisation of the western<br />

Mexican coast (DFG HI 643/5-1)<br />

• The geology of raw materials, sequence stratigraphy and palynology in the<br />

“Muschelkalk” of south Germany and Hungary. (Cooperation with University<br />

Halle PhD thesis, DFG GO 761/1-1).<br />

• Reservoir characterisation through outcrop analogue studies in a terminal<br />

alluvial plain of the south German Keuper formation. (Studienarbeit)<br />

Germany,Hungary, China): lithofacies make up, reservoir architecture and<br />

depositional controls.<br />

Quarternary sedimentary geology and surface processes:<br />

• Sediment budget and sequence stratigraphy of Pliocene and Quaternary<br />

unconsolidated deposits of the Rheingletscher area, Swiss midlands and the<br />

Upper Rhein Graben (SPP International Continental Drilling Project; DFG HI<br />

643/2-3; 2002-2005)<br />

• Genesis of alluvial fans and bajadas according to tectonical uplift and climate<br />

change in the central Andes, Peru.<br />

• Architecture, 3-dimensional sediment-mass partitioning and georisk<br />

assessment of a debris flow fan in Switzerland (Diploma thesis).<br />

Hydrogeology, engineering-geology:<br />

• Characterisation of periglacial debris layers with gro<strong>und</strong> penetrating radar in<br />

terms of sedimentology, hydrogeology and soil-science (PhD thesis).<br />

• Reconstruction of Holocene, Roman and modern sediment yield from valley<br />

and reservoir fillings in the Huerva catchment, Ebro basin, Spain (PhD thesis<br />

financed by DAAD).<br />
