Resarch Interests
My focus is on understanding sediment-water interactions in water bodies and how they affect nutrients and pollutants dynamics. My research interests are; sediment biogeochemistry, paleolimnology, eutrophication, lake restoration, emerging pollutants.
Current Project
EventNut (DFG funded), in collaboration with University of Rostock, Dept. of Aquatic Ecology
Rapid, event-driven shortcuts between benthic nutrients and phytoplankton in inland and coastal waters. The project focuses on investigating the link between sediment nutrient release and phytoplankton physiology by using high temporal resolution, in-situ methods in shallow lakes.

PhD work
Role of the sediments for dissolved organic carbon (DOC) quantity and quality in drinking water reservoirs
The project is a sub-project of the Trinkwassertalsperren durch gelösten organischen Kohlenstoff (TALKO) project. The project was motivated by the increasing DOC input into European and North American streams over the last two decades. Increasing DOC presents a major problem to potable (drinking) water suppliers by increasing chemical consumption in potable water processing plants. DOC in the aquatic system can also affect light penetration hence some disturbances in the phototrophs biodiversity.
The project focus on quantifying fluxes of DOC between the sediments and water in Harz (Hassel & Rappode) and Muldenberg (Rotmulde) pre-dams in order to understand DOC cycling in the pre-dams. Also of interest is investigating influence of benthic biofilms, sedimentation, and sediment resuspension on DOC fluxes. Quantification of DOC fluxes will further culminate in process specific biochemical experiments to further understand the hot spots in the sediment-water DOC cycle. The focus is not limited to DOC only but we also try to understand the interconnection of the DOC cycle with nutrient (N, P), redox species (Fe, Mn, SO4) cycles. A combination of both in-situ (benthic chamber, sediment trap) and laboratory (sediment core incubation, resuspension) experiments are used. The experiments have a special focus on the effect of redox-changes, anaerobic microbial processes, temperature and light on the DOC cycle.
