Volcanoes
 |
Prof. Jonathan Castro, JGU Jonathan Castro's research is focused on the dynamics of volcanic eruption, in particular to constrain the changes in physical parameters of flowing magma in conduits and their effect on the degassing and deformation experienced by the ascending and cooling magma and, therefore, on the eruptive style. |
 |
Prof. Thomas Wagner, MPIC The Satellite group uses remote sensing data to determine the contents of trace atmospheric gases, as well as the determination of cloud and aerosol properties and the simulation of atmospheric radiative transfer. |
Atmospheres
 |
Prof. Peter Hoor, JGU Peter Hoor's group uses aircraft measurements based on optical spectroscopy to determine the composition and dynamics of gas and particles in the tropopause region. |
 |
Prof. Holger Tost, JGU The Earth Systems Modeling group studies interactions of atmospheric chemistry and dynamics on multiple scales, like cloud formation and convection and its interaction with aerosols and chemistry. |
 |
Prof. Christiane Voigt, JGU Christiane Voigt leads a group that studies the heterogeneous chemistry and radiative impact of atmospheric particles and trace gases in the tropopause region through a combined approach of aircraft measurements, satellite observations, and global modeling. |
Magmas
 |
Prof. Richard White, JGU Richard White studies the evolution of crustal rocks combining field observations with phase equilibria models. |
 |
Déjan Prelević, JGU Déjan Prelević studies the chemical and isotopic properties of minerals and rocks to understand their conditions of formation. |
Transport Systems
 |
Prof. Boris Kaus, JGU Boris Kaus leads a group that uses mathematical and numerical models to describe how geological processes work on a lithospheric scale (e.g., shear localization, formation of fold-and-thrust belts, and melt migration). |
 |
Prof. Cees Passchier, JGU Cees Passchier leads a group interested in microstructural and rheological analysis of deformed rocks through laboratory experiments of rock analogue aggregates. |
