Research Interests:
I am the laboratory head of the dating and sediment analyses laboratory at the GUZ (Geo- and Environmental Center) at Tübingen University (Terrestrial Sedimentology). My focus is on geochronology (specifically luminescence dating), quaternary, palaeolithic and palaeoenvironmental research. My main aim is to unravel sedimentological systems and to understand how climatic shifts in the past determined changes in palaeoenvironment.
In a DFG funded project (249.350 EUR) we are currently investigating the characteristics and potential of a yellow stimulated feldspar luminescence signal with the aim to date Quaternary sediments.
I am also participating in the project "Climate Change and Early Humans in the North (CCEHN)". I am here PI of the geochronology part (242.220 EUR):
