Sediment dynamics of megaslides along the Svalbard continental margin and the relation to paleoenvironmental changes and climate history
(Univ. Bremen, 2007)
Slope stability, submarine slides, Svalbard, Arctic Ocean, Sophia Basin. - With increasing interest in slope stability issues on continental shelves the causes and trigger mechanism of submarine slides get more and more ...
Palaeoenvironmental evolution of the Tunisian carbonate platform margin
(Univ. Bremen, 2008)
The Late BarremianLate Aptian interval was characterised by several major changes in the ocean/climate system related to the onset of the Mid-Cretaceous greenhouse world. North Africansedimentary deposits offer excellent ...
Antarctic ice sheet expansions in the Middle Miocene and Pliocene
(Univ. Bremen, 2008)
This study focuses on the interactions between climate and ice sheets in order to obtain a better understanding of the processes involved. Two periods in the geological past are explored; the Middle Miocene and the ...
Deformation microstructures
(Univ. Bremen, 2007)
Ice, microstructures, subgrain boundaries, recrystallization, flow, deformation. - The primary objective of this thesis is the investigation of microstructures obtained from samples from the EPICA Dronning Maud Land ice ...
Predictive modeling of organic pollutant leaching and transport behavior at the lysimeter and field scales
(Univ. Dresden, 2007)
Soil and groundwater pollution has become a global issue since the advent of industrialization and mechanized agriculture. Some contaminants such as PAHs may persist in the subsurface for decades and centuries. In a bid ...
The Phanerozoic thermo-tectonic evolution of northern Mozambique constrained by 40Ar/39Ar, fission track and (U-Th)/He analyses
(Univ. Bremen, 2007)
Thermochronology, Fission track, (U-Th)/He, 40Ar/39Ar,Mozambique, Gondwana, supercontinent dispersal. - Results of thermochronometric investigations comprising 40Ar/39Ar hornblende and biotite, titanite and apatite fission ...
Eiszeitliche Erscheinungen im nördlichen Schwarzwald
(Selbstverlag der Bundesanstalt für Landeskunde, 1957)
In dieser Arbeit wird der Fragestellung nachgegangen, ob die zahlreichen Karnischen
des Nordschwarzwalds echte Kare sind und die Schneegrenze hier besonders
tief gelegen hat oder die Schneegrenze wie im übrigen Deutschland ...
The sediment record of Lake Ohrid (Albania/Macedonia)
(Univ. Köln, 2009)
This thesis had two primary objectives: One objective was to explore and develop applications of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIRS) for the quantification of biogeochemical properties in lake sediment; the ...
Quaternary tectonics and seismic stratigraphy of the western Black Sea shelf
(Univ. Hamburg, 2009)
Interpretation of high and very high resolution reflection seismic data from the western Black Sea shelf yielded a seismic stratigraphic model of the Late Quaternary deposits on the southwestern Black Sea shelf. This model ...
Late Quaternary environmental history of Taylor Valley, southern Victoria Land, Antarctica, reconstructed by a multidisciplinary study of lake sediments
(Univ. Köln, 2009)
In the unglaciated areas of Antarctica, lake sediments act as archives of the regional environmental and climatic history. In most cases, the records are restricted to the Holocene. Amongst the few exceptions are lakes in ...
