Gina Moseley was one of the recipients of this year´s science award of the City of Innsbruck. Congratulations!

We welcome Haiwei Zhang, assistant professor at the Institute of Global Environmental Change, Xi'an Jiaotong University, who will be our guest for one year.

A new study highlights the details of long-term climate change in the core area of the Asian continent, derived from cave carbonates.

Organised by small team led by Gina Moseley 30 students, early career and senior scientists from our University discussed interdisciplinary approaches in climate change.

Luke Gliganic was awarded a Lise-Meitner grant to continue his work on dating archaeological surfaces using optically stimulated luminescence in our group.

Marc Luetscher completed an intensive field season searching for traces of palaeo-permafrost preserved in high-Alpine karst systems.

Teaming up with experts from the Mining Institutes of the Russian Academy of Sciences Yuri Dublyansky and Paul Töchterle completed field work in the Ural Mountains.

After four years of preparation this 752-page volume was recently published, the first of its kind on caves and karst in Austria.

In this collaborative study we examined laminated travertine carbonates which preserve annually resolved climate and hydrology information covering the complete reign of Emperor Nero.

An international team presented a unique long-term record of Asian summer monsoon variability based on speleothems which allows to address some fundamental issues about the climate system.

A joint team from the GeoForschungsZentrum Potsdam and the University of Innsbruck completed a challenging coring campaign on Lake Hallstatt.

The third scientific expedition onto the Tibetan plateau led by Michael Meyer was recently successfully completed.

Strong turn-out for our group at EGU 2016.

We participated in an international study of the long-term evolution of the Indian summer monsoon system which is critical to billions of people.

A warm welcome to Stefan Lauterbach who recently joined our group and who will study extreme climate events recorded in Hallstätter See.

Group members and families enjoyed a fabulous dinner at Gleinserhof and successfully tested the newly illuminated toboggan track.

Drilling deeper and underwater was the goal of the recent trip to Nevada - and it was a successful endeaveour.

In a joint study with colleagues from Minnesota we could reconcile the iconic palaeoclimate record from Devils Hole, Nevada, with Milankovic forcing.

Three members of our group participated in a new study of North Africa rainfall for the last glacial period, the first of its kind from this part of the world obtained from speleothems.

We participated in a recent expedition into a deep cave in the Dolomites hosting probably the largest underground glacier in this mountain range.

10 ka ago, a huge ice sheet melted in North America, in the same way that the ice in Greenland is melting today. Its meltwater had a massive impact on the climate in Europe and NW Africa.
