All information about my research (projects, publications, presentations etc.) can be found here.
My research interests focus on mathematics in the geosciences and natural sciences, in particular structure evolution in soils, modelling and simulation of reactive contaminant transport in porous media, evaluation of natural attenuation, geostatistics, efficient and accurate solution of hydrogeochemical multicomponent models.
Please see also the projects I participated or lead (Volume of third-party funding as PI/Co-PI since 2015 approx. 1.176 Million Euros).
