Research
Our research-focused team comprises 11 creative working groups, which cultivate a future-oriented combination of basic and applied research and participate in a wide variety of interdisciplinary research at FAU. GeoZentrum Nordbayern has developed three very successful, internationally recognized research priority areas: Crustal Dynamics, Paleo-Environments and Applied Geosciences. Our research focuses on process-oriented investigations of geodynamic processes and their effects on the diversity of life on Earth, the analysis of geomaterials for structural, technical and medical purposes and the investigation of georesources for a changing world.
