Quantifizierung der relativen Meeresspiegelentwicklung entlang der Küsten des Omans
(2019-12-03)
Zentrales Thema dieser Promotion sind die Ursachen und Auswirkungen von Meeresspiegelschwankungen auf die Küste des Omans, welche auf verschiedenen Zeitskalen beleuchtet werden. Anhand der Küstenmorphologie, der Topographie ...
Partitioning of carbon dioxide exchange in rapidly and slowly changing ecosystems
(2019-11-07)
Im Hinblick auf den aktuellen Klimawandel besteht die Frage, wie die Biosphäre auf den Globalen Wandel und die daraus hervorgehende lokale Landnutzungsänderung bezüglich ihres Kohlenstoffkreislaufes reagiert. Die Landoberfläche ...
Glass corrosion: Towards a Unifying Mechanistic Model
(2019-12-13)
Borosilicate glasses are currently used for the immobilization of highly radioactive waste and are materials of choice for many biomedical and research industries. They are metastable materials that corrode in aqueous ...
The plesiosaur: remarkable morphology, histology, and physiology
(2019-07-04)
In this dissertation, contributions to understanding the morphology, histology, and physiology of plesiosaurs, a major group of marine reptiles from the Age of Dinosaurs, are presented. By using comparative methods and new ......
The subduction of continental crust - insights from eclogite geochronology and petrology
(2019-07-09)
When continents collide slices of continental crust may be dragged down into the subduction zone to depths of up to 200 km. The most straightforward evidence for continental subduction refers to the presence of high-pressure ...
Die Auswirkungen des CO2-Gehaltes der Archaischen Atmosphäre auf die Bildung von Siderit in Superior type Banded Iron Formations
(2019-12-06)
Es wurde vorgeschlagen, Siderit (FeCO3) Archaischen Superior Type Banded Iron Formations zu verwenden, um eine Bestimmung des CO2-Partialdrucks in der Archaischen Atmosphäre durchzuführen. Dies ......
Experimental data from siderite formation in Superior type BIFs on the CO2partial pressure in the Archaean atmosphere
Siderite bands in mid to late Archaean Superior type Banded ......

Modeling climate and land use change impacts on water resources and soil erosion in the Dano catchment (Burkina Faso, West Africa)
(2018-07-11)
The study assesses the effect of climate and land use change on water resources and soil ero-sion in the Dano catchment, Burkina Faso. Field measurements and derived process under-standing are complemented by a physically ...
Rock slope instability in alpine geomorphic systems, Switzerland
(2018-04-26)
Faced with the hazard potential and geomorphic importance of rock slopes adjusting to glacier retreat and current climate warming, the motivation of this dissertation is to increase our systemic and process understanding ...
Propagation of land surface model uncertainties in simulated terrestrial system states
(2018-05-15)
This study demonstrates how vegetation uncertainty propagates in the terrestrial system and how to reduce this uncertainty. Different stomatal conductance equations and different leaf area index input exist for solving ...
Applied Hydrogeophysics For Managed Aquifer Recharge
(2018-02-15)
This thesis investigates the application of hydrogeophysical monitoring and characterization techniques in the context of managed aquifer recharge (MAR). MAR is a sustainable technology in modern water resources management. ...
