Claudia Kuenzer. His research focuses on Earth Observation for the analysis of continental surface water dynamics in the context of Global Change. The study presented at EGU24 focused on the evaluation of trends, patterns, and drivers of African surface water dynamics. He analyzed surface water trends throughout the continent, identified causal impacts on Africa’s major water bodies, and assessed similarities between different lakes.

The focus of his thesis were the hydraulic and hydrologic aspects of the glacier dammed lake outburst floods of Gornersee in the Swiss Alps. He investigated the lake drainages during four field seasons with tracer experiments and other accompanying hydrologic measurements and interpreted them with hydraulic models of the glacial drainage system.

This task is not always easy, and frequently a general overview of the available positions is missing. The academic pathway is often considered as the natural next step for scientists, however, in some divisions, up to 70% of PhD graduates will go into work outside of academia. There are many different careers beyond academia which require or benefit from … Read more 1 2 Next

.; Green, A.) Click here to download the poster/PICO file. Joseph Doetsch is a PhD student at ETH Zurich (Switzerland) under the supervision of Niklas Linde and Alan Green. His research concentrates on hydrogeophysical characterization of active gravel aquifers in restored and unrestored river environments. The awarded poster presents results of an aquifer zonation approach that uses joint inversion of three cross-borehole methods (ground-penetrating radar, seismics and electrical tomography) to define aquifer units with similar physical properties.

Categories Environmental, Geomorphology Country India Is it safe for school children or families to visit? Yes Do you need permissions to access the location? No Description The Deccan Traps in west-central India are one of the largest volcanic features on the planet. The solidified layers of flood basalt that make up the traps rise up to about 2,000 metres and cover an area of some 500,000 square kilometres. They are thought to have originated from volcanic eruptions that occurred between 60 and 68 million years ago.
