Congratulations to Vimal Koul, who defended his PhD thesis last week at the University of Hamburg. Vimals thesis was awarded the grade "with distinction/mit Auszeichnung.“ Vimal is working in our department Matter Transport and Ecosystem Dynamic. We asked him to tell us about his … [Read more...]
What is your qualifying background? I studied applied mathematics for Bachelor and fluid mechanics for Master, and investigated coastal sediment transport and morphodynamics of barrier islands in my Ph.D thesis defended in 2010. Since then my research work has mainly focused on source-to-sink … [Read more...]
What is your qualifying background? I studied theology, roman languages, and physics, but specialized on ecology and ecosystem modeling during my Diploma thesis in a department of theoretical physics. After my PhD on forest ecosystem dynamics and excursions to archaeology, microbiology, and coastal … [Read more...]
Welchen fachlichen Hintergrund haben Sie? Ich habe an der damaligen Fachhochschule Hamburg Vermessungswesen (heute Geomatik) studiert und habe mich dort in der Hydrographie spezialisiert, die auch als „nasse Vermessung“ bekannt ist. Meine Diplomarbeit schrieb ich in der Abteilung Radarhydrographie … [Read more...]
... weil die Probennahme ansteht – das mag ich! Diese Aussage ist für einen Küstenforscher nicht ungewöhnlich, doch aus dem Munde eines Institutsleiters überrascht sie zunächst. Wer allerdings Prof. Dr. Kay-Christian Emeis, Institutsleiter des Bereichs Biogeochemie im Küstenmeer, ein bisschen … [Read more...]
What is your qualifying background? I always had an interest in biology – my teenage hero was Konrad Lorenz - so I chose Zoology as my first degree. I briefly considered ecology as a special subject, but eventually did a Masters in Conservation, which I really enjoyed as a broad introduction to a … [Read more...]
Welchen fachlichen Hintergrund haben Sie? / What is your qualifying background? Ich bin B.Sc. in Umwelttechnik und M.Eng. in Renewable Energy Systems. Was ich gut kann und daher täglich mache, hat damit – manchmal leider - wenig zu tun und beinhaltet überwiegend komplexe messtechnische Systeme zu … [Read more...]
