Research Interests
- I’m part of the FluSeeQ project, which focuses on utilizing the thermal potential of surface waters for heat extraction.
- I investigate the impact of heat extraction from standing waters in the context of climate change.
- My work focuses on German lakes and reservoirs larger than 10 hectares.
- I've also worked with nutrient (P, N, and Si) load and retention efficiency in pre-dams.
