Sermilik Station

In 2024 I started a new position as Scientific Head of the Austrian research station at Sermilik Fjord in East Greenland. Thanks to the generous support of a private donor, the University of Graz was able to establish this new station. We operate the station site together with University of Copenhagen and focus on interdisciplinary polar research and long-term monitoring of Arctic environment connections.

Earth observation

One of the great things about machine learning algorithms is that they can be applied to so many different fields and problems, that’s one of the main reasons why working with them is so fascinating. Due to my passion for mountains, snow and remote areas like Greenland or Svalbard, linking them with geoscience and glaciology was kind of obvious for me.

There seems to be a problem with this image...

Machine learning algorithms are a fascinating set of tools that opened up completely new ways of analytics and evaluations. Modern neural networks outperform human capabilities when it comes to image recognition, reinforcement learning approaches allow computers to learn new tasks with incredible speed and many of the large scientific experiments would not be possible without the application of algorithmes that have learned to deal with the plethora of generated data.

Nanophysics

Half a century ago it was Richard Feynman who first talked about the incredible possibilities if we investigate physics at the nanoscale (There’s Plenty of Room at the Bottom, 1959, Caltech). It took nearly 20 years until this first concepts became reality.
