Research area

The main research focus of Prof. Martin Schroth is on greenhouse-gas (GHG) turnover in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, with specific emphasis on microbial methane oxidation in various habitats including aquifers, landfill-cover soils, peat bogs, and glacier forefields. Research projects often involve quantitative field-scale and/or intermediate-scale laboratory experimentation aimed at better understanding GHG turnover and associated microbial communities in these environments.

Another important research focus of Prof. Schroth is the development of novel tools for the field-scale quantification of microbial and geochemical processes in soils and aquifers by combining hydrological, stable isotope, molecular, and soil-physical methods.
