My scientific interests relate to landscape dynamics under human impact and the long-term change of special compartments (relief, soil, vegetation, water) reflected by geoarchives (e.g. paleosols, colluvial and aeolian sequences). My geographical focus is on Central Europe and High Asia concentrating on mountain and lowland forests, lakes, rivers and dunes. Current topics are environmental changes in the Central European uplands impacted by historic mining and hydrological changes of lakes in the lowlands.
