We focus on understanding the evolution of the Earth and how it works as a system.
/en/research/department-of-earth-sciences - Departement Fysische Geografie
Our research is directed to understanding the physical processes, patterns, and forms at the Earth's terrestrial surface.
/en/research/department-of-physical-geography - Evolution and morphodynamics of rivers, floodplains and deltas
Our Delta Evolution programme aims to develop a fundamental, data-driven understanding of the development of deltas and resulting subsurface architecture at time scales of millennia to centuries.
/en/research/department-of-physical-geography/research/evolution-and-morphodynamics-of-rivers-floodplains-and-deltas - Experimental rock deformation/HPT-lab
We conduct research on the mechanical behaviour and transport properties of Earth materials at conditions pertaining to the Earth’s crust and upper mantle.
/en/research/department-of-earth-sciences/research/earth-planetary-processes/experimental-rock-deformation - Fundamentele Wiskunde
De drie belangrijkste pijlers van deze vakgroep zijn algebra, meetkunde en analyse. De groep verkent ook de relatie hiervan met logica, getaltheorie en natuurkunde, met oog voor de geschiedenis van het onderwerp.
/organisatie/mathematisch-instituut/onderzoek/fundamentele-wiskunde - Geolab
The GeoLab is the main laboratory facility of the Faculty of Geosciences. We have a wide range of lab facilities available for measuring bulk rock geochemistry, bulk rock stable isotopes (H, C, N, S), in situ stable and radiogenic isotopes (U,Pb-dating), in situ major and trace elements and crystallography.
/organisatie/faculteit-geowetenschappen/onderzoeksfaciliteiten/geolab - Geschiedenis en Filosofie van de Natuurwetenschappen
Deze vakgroep doet onderzoek naar de natuur en geschiedenis van de wetenschap en wetenschappelijke kennis.
/onderzoek/freudenthal-instituut/over-ons/geschiedenis/history-and-philosophy-of-science - Hydrology, water resources and global change
At Utrecht ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ we study hydrological processes from the scale of the smallest catchment, to continental and even global scale.
/en/research/department-of-physical-geography/research/hydrology-water-resources-and-global-change - Instituut voor Theoretische Fysica
Onderzoekers van dit instituut gebruiken concepten en methoden gecodeerd in wiskundige taal om de fysieke werkelijkheid te verklaren.
/onderzoek/instituut-voor-theoretische-fysica - Landscape functioning and natural hazards
Our group focuses on studying natural hazards processes: including landslides and soil erosion in mountainous areas in the Alps and the Himalayas, and wind erosion and droughts in semi-arid environments like the Mediterranean region and the Sahara. The results of our studies and the outcome of our models helps society to mitigate the negative impacts of hazards.
/en/research/department-of-physical-geography/research/landscape-functioning-and-natural-hazards - Manteldynamica
De Manteldynamicagroep onderzoekt hoe geodynamische processen van de aardmantel in verband staan met de tektonische evolutie van de aardkorst en de vervorming van het aardoppervlak.
/en/research/mantle-dynamics - Marine Palynology and Paleoceanografie
We study climate and biota in past oceans to project the future.
/en/research/department-of-earth-sciences/marine-palynology-and-paleoceanography - Mathematisch Instituut
Het doel van dit instituut is op het hoogste niveau onderzoek te doen binnen zoveel mogelijk kerngebieden van de wiskunde, zowel in de zuivere als de toegepaste wiskunde.
/organisatie/mathematisch-instituut - Paleoclimate & Biogeology
Palaeoecology studies past environmental dynamics by means of palaeo-reconstructions combined with experiments and observations to understand past and present behavior of biota in relation to humans, climate and natural competition.
/en/research/department-of-earth-sciences/paleoclimate-biogeology We investigate variatons of the geomagnetic field, neotectonic and geodynamical research, and rock magnetism & environmental magnetism
- Petrology
We focus on fundamental research in stable isotope geochemistry to develop and improve biomarkers and environmental proxies related to the Archean Earth, and we investigate early Earth and modern hydrothermal settings as analogues of Mars for future planetary missions.
/en/research/department-of-earth-sciences/petrology - Quaternary climate and landscape
Our research covers the last hundred thousands of years when rapid climate change and sea level rise took place under mostly natural conditions. By studying this particular time-period, we gain a better understanding of the relative contribution and functioning of natural processes on climate and landscape changes.
/en/research/department-of-physical-geography/research/quaternary-climate-and-landscape We extract information from earthquakes recorded at global and regional seismic networks to produce three-dimensional models of the Earth'sinterior, mostly using supercomputing.
Wij doen onderzoek naar de validatie van (biologische) proxies en het ontwikkelen van geologische tijdschalen.
