Field exercise in hydrogeophysics in the Vulkaneifel Geopark (Module M84 / pea833)
From 4 to 7 June 2026, the field course in the Hydrogeophysics module (M84 / pea833) will take place in the Vulkaneifel Geopark under the direction of Prof. Dr. Andreas Kemna, Maximilian Weigand and Joost Hase.
Christmas lecture in module PEA735 – Electrical Imaging
The module “Electrical Imaging” (Master’s program PEA https://www.ifgeo.uni-bonn.de/en/study/study-mug/master-pea) covers the theoretical fundamentals of geoelectrical methods in geophysics. While the emphasis is on the mathematical description of the underlying physics, we turned to a hands‑on activity just before Christmas.
Inaugural lecture on deep earthquakes as a mystery from the depths by Prof. Marcel
At the Dies Academicus of the 2025/26 winter semester, Prof. Marcel Thielmann presented the current theories and hypotheses on deep earthquakes in his lecture and explained how modern computer simulations can help to understand the physical processes responsible for these phenomena.
Field days in the module ‘Geophysical Data Evaluation and Field Exercise’, WS 25/26
In beautiful November weather, the Environmental Geophysics Working Group successfully held this year's field days for the bachelor's module ‘Geophysical Data Analysis and Field Exercise’. As part of the event, prospective geophysicists from the University of Bonn gained their first practical experience with the various geophysical measurement methods used for non-invasive exploration of the subsurface.
Visit to the Geophysics Department on Science Day at Beethoven Gymnasium Bonn
As part of Science Day, pupils from Beethoven Gymnasium Bonn visited the Geophysics Department of the Institute of Geosciences today, accompanied by their physics teacher, to gain exciting insights into the world of Earth system physics.
