- Biomorphodynamics of living river and coastal landscapes
Our aim is to understand and predict natural and human-induced dynamics of living fluvial and coastal landscapes.
/en/research/department-of-physical-geography/research/biomorphodynamics-of-living-river-and-coastal-landscapes - Computational geography and earth observation
Earth observation from satellites and other platforms (aircrafts, drones) is crucial for our understanding of System Earth and to monitor processes at the Earth surface.
/en/research/department-of-physical-geography/research/computational-geography-and-earth-observation - 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.

ESD2 adviseert bedrijven en overheden over duurzame oplossingen voor stedelijke dynamiek. Hierbij staat het ruimtegebruik van bewoners, ondernemers en bezoekers van steden centraal.
/onderzoek/expertisecentrum-voor-stedelijke-dynamiek-en-duurzaamheid-esd2 - 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 - Institutions for Open Societies
Binnen Institutions for Open Societies werken wetenschappers samen met maatschappelijke partners aan vraagstukken op het gebied van onder andere groeiende sociaaleconomische ongelijkheid, de macht van 'big tech', terrorisme, discriminatie, de klimaatcrisis en wantrouwen in overheid en wetenschap.
/onderzoek/institutions-for-open-societies - 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 - 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 - Risk Assessment
The overall aim of the Risk Assessment of Toxic and Immuno-modulatory Agents (RATIA) program is to improve the scientific basis for assessment of risk to humans, animals, and ecosystems from exposure to potentially harmful agents in the environment, in occupational settings, through vaccination, and through the food chain.
/organisatie/faculteit-diergeneeskunde/over-ons/organisatie/departement-population-health-sciences/institute-for-risk-assessment-sciences-iras - Sociale Geografie en Planologie
Wij onderzoeken duurzame sociale en economische ontwikkeling en de governance van steden en regio’s.
/en/research/human-geography-and-planning - Sustainability
Dit strategisch thema brengt duurzaamheidsonderzoek bij elkaar van enkele moleculen tot complete planeten, waarbij we focussen op water, energie en een gezonde omgeving.
/onderzoek/sustainability - Water Climate and Future Deltas
Water Climate and Future Deltas richt zich op het begrijpen en voorspellen van delta’s en deltamanagement en biedt een beleidsmatig gericht perspectief op het onderzoek naar en het beheer van deltasystemen door fysische, chemische, biologische, institutionele, juridische en socio-economische processen te bestuderen.
