Prof. Dr. Andreas Mulch
Vice-Director 6-2.10 | EARTH SURFACE PROCESSES AND PALEOCLIMATE DYNAMICS 6-2.11 | STABLE ISOTOPE PALEOCLIMATE RECONSTRUCTIONS 6-2.14 | SAVANNA DEVELOPMENT 6-2.20 | BIOMARKER & PALEOCLIMATE Research Interests My primary research interest is the interplay between the processes that shape the Earth’s surface and their geodynamic counterparts at depth, in particular interactions between climate, landscape evolution, and mountain building. The terrestrial biosphere plays an important role in various aspects of this research including controls on the global carbon cycle, atmospheric moisture transport, and weathering and erosion. My current research involves the use of isotopes as tracers of (bio-)geochemical processes from the ecosystem to the orogen scale with a particular focus on the Cenozoic evolution of coupled climatic and tectonic processes. Projects currently underway include stable isotope paleoaltimetry and reconstruction of Cenozoic terrestrial paleoclimate in western North America, the Andes, the Alps, and the Anatolian Plateau including the Eastern Mediterranean region.
