Marine Geophysik
Überblick
In der Arbeitsgruppe „Marine Geophysik“ untersuchen wir vor allem solche Prozesse in der oberen Erdkruste, die einen Einfluss auf die Topografie des Meeresbodens haben. Unsere wichtigsten Verfahren sind die Seeseismik, Fächerlote und parametrische Sedimentecholote. In einigen unserer Projekte nutzen wir auch Ozean-Boden-Seismographen für Weitwinkel-Reflexions- und Refraktionsseismik, sowie ein Seegravimeter und die Magnetometer (Gradiometer). Uns interessieren zum Beispiel die Lebenszyklen von Unterwasservulkanen, submarine Hangrutschungen, die Wechselwirkung zwischen Meeresströmungen und Sedimentablagerungen, Salztektonik, im Untergrund zirkulierende Fluide und Riftsysteme. Unsere Forschung ist in hohem Maße interdisziplinär, wir arbeiten zusammen mit Geologen, Geochemikern und Petrologen.
Regionale Schwerpunkte sind das östliche und zentrale Mittelmeer, die Azoren, der Golf von Mexiko, die Sierra Leone Schwelle und, nicht zuletzt, die Ostsee. Dort werden die BCs-Studierenden mit Vertiefungsrichtung Geophysik während des seegeophysikalischen Praktikums intensiv in die seismischen und hydroakustischen Systeme eingewiesen.
