Biography

Since 2010
PhD Student at University of Potsdam, Institute of Earth and Environmental Science
2008 – 2009
PhD Student at the Helmholtz Centre of Environmental Research Leipzig, Department Hydrogeology
1999 – 2007
Studies in Environmental Engineering (TU Berlin)

Research

Research Topics:

  • Non-invasive imaging techniques
  • Water content distribution, oxygen and pH dynamics
  • Interaction of water flow, oxygen transport and biodegradation

Research Project:

“Highly resolved imaging in aggregated soil: which are the interfaces formed by the interaction of water flow, oxygen transport and biodegradation” part of the SPP 1315 (www.spp1315.uni-jena.de)

  • Development of fluorescence imaging method for the visualization of oxygen diffusion in unsaturated artificial porous media
  • Visualization of oxygen consumption in natural aggregated soils  induced by plant roots via fluorescence foil imaging
  • Visualization of water content distribution in heterogeneous soils with neutron radiography and fluorescence imaging
  • Visualization of pH dynamics induced by plant roots and microbes
