Laboratory for Microscopy

The Laboratory for Microscopy focuses on the specific requirements of microfacies analysis of lake sediments, but also offers a wide range of possibilities for other applications. Sedimentological, petrographic and microfacies analyses on all kinds …

Laboratory for XRF Element Scanning

The laboratory for XRF (X-ray Fluorescence) Element Scanning focusses on non-destructive and continuous core analyses. These analyses allow detailed geochemical characterisation of complete sediment cores down to individual layers and grains. Bridgi…

Sediment Laboratory (SedLab)

Tracking Earth surface processes through size and shape of sediment particles

In the SedLab, we analyse the compositional properties of sediments by measuring the full range of grain-size distributions from a few nanometers to centimeters and by …

Stable isotope laboratory for sediments and water

In the laboratories for stable isotopes in sediments and water, the isotope ratios of the light elements nitrogen (N), carbon (C) and oxygen (O) in continental geoarchives such as lake sediments and speleothems as well as oxygen (O) and hydrogen (H)…

VARDA - Varved Sediments Database

The Varved Sediments Database (VARDA) provides standardized proxy records from annually resolved lake archives. All proxy records offer full quantification of age-uncertainty from state of the art age-depth modeling routines. VARDA is a service prov…
