BSc/MSc thesis in Limnogeology
Offering oppertunities for BSc or MSc thesis in the field of limnogeology
Keywords: Lake sediments, Limnogeology, Lakes, Geology, Earth Sciences, Sedimentology, Geochemistry
Lake sediments are sensitive archives of naturally-occurring and anthropogenically-induced environmental change. Furthermore, they record for historic and prehistoric times series of earth surface processes linked to natural hazards. Master projects in Limnogeology investigate with geophysical, sedimentological and geochemical methods the subsurface of lakes in Switzerland and abroad. An interpretation of these data then address past environmental and climatic conditions and relates them to ongoing and future earth surfaces processes and to frequency and intensity of natural hazards such as earthquakes, landslides, rock slides, floods and tsunamis.
