Formation and evolution of the ocean floor
We combine models with data to study the geodynamic evolution of the ocean floor. For this purpose, we link findings from computer simulations with
Mid-ocean ridge dynamics
Fresh oceanic crust is generated at the axis of mid-ocean ridges and transported away with the oceanic lithosphere. Spreading velocities are highly variable and correlate

Modeling fluid-rock interactions within the oceanic lithosphere
The ageing and alteration of oceanic lithosphere is closely linked to fluid flow and the associated hydration and alteration reactions.

Proxy Development and Application
Many environmental parameters (e.g. temperature, salinity, pH) influence the isotopic and elemental composition of shells formed by marine calcifiers. Consequently

Larval Ecology
Survival of fish eggs and larvae is crucial for the recruitment to fisheries and the bottleneck in production for aquaculture. The focus of the larval ecology group therefore is on
