Because of declining concentrations of tritium the conventional way of studying underground flows of water is at risk of becoming useless. A group of researchers including scientists from Utrecht ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ worked out just how long the old tritium method will still be useful across the world.
Lydian Boschman receives the prize for her research on the role that tectonics, palaeogeography and palaeoclimate have played in shaping contemporary biodiversity.
Using a complex climate model, researchers from Utrecht ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ have simulated the collapse of the large-scale ocean circulation in the Atlantic Ocean.
Groundwater scientists and model developers from Utrecht ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ and Deltares joined forces to create the very first 1 km global groundwater model.
Worldwide, large tracts of land are contaminated with PFAS. Instead of the classic "dig and dump" method, the university wants to explore the possibilities of sustainable remediation.
By sharing research facilities and data openly to scientists undertaking research into the subsurface, we aim to improve our collective knowledge and pave the way to a safe and sustainable use of the subsurface.
