Our working group existed until 2020

Welcome to the homepage of the former Department Sedimentology/Paleoceanography!
The department for Sedimentology and Paleoceanography existed from August 1993 until March 2020. The research activities covered a broad spectrum of clastic and carbonate marine sedimentology with a focus on the subjects "siliciclastic and carbonate shelf systems" and "ocean and climate". In addition, our work was focused on the study of pelagic carbonates with special consideration of coccolithophores, including work on ecology, morphometry and biometry, as well as their application for different paleoceanographic studies and paleoenvironmental reconstructions.

We will continue to add new publications (and possibly some news) here... (last update October 2023)
