Aspects of Archaeology

17.05.2022

Geology and archaeology have many points in common, and many ancient sites benefit from a collaboration of geologists and archaeologists. Of specific interest are ancient water supply systems, probably the greatest technical achievements of antiquity. A specific fruitful topic to study such systems

Improving predictability of changes in tide-influenced channel morphology – can we take previously established concepts one step further?

10.05.2022

An increasing number of studies links down-dip changes in riverine morphodynamics on delta plains to backwater effects, i.e. flow deceleration as a river approaches a standing water body and subsequent deposition.

Building planetary atmospheres from magma oceans

22.03.2022

Atmospheres around some rocky planets may be germane to the development of life. Owing to the energy deposited during accretion, most are thought to have undergone at least one magma ocean stage in their lifetime.

Looking at rivers in a data rich era

29.03.2022

For decades geomorphologists have asked what drives the fundamental difference in river functioning between single-thread meandering channel and multi-thread systems? The variety of existing river channel patterns and their functioning are nicely summarized in the river classification schemes which

The wonder of wetlands: the secret weapon in the battle against climate change

16.02.2022

Blue carbon ecosystems such as salt marshes act as efficient natural carbon sinks, helping to offset CO2 emissions and fight climate change. This is what emerges from research carried out at the Dept. of Geosciences within the Research Programme Venezia2021, coordinated by CORILA.
