  • Glacigenic sedimentation pulses triggered postglacial gas hydrate dissociation 
    Karstens, Jens; Haflidason, Haflidi; Becker, Lukas; Berndt, Christian; Rüpke, Lars Helmuth; Planke, Sverre; Liebetrau, Volker; Schmidt, Markus; Mienert, Jurgen (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)
    Large amounts of methane are stored in continental margins as gas hydrates. They are stable under high pressure and low temperature, but react sensitively to environmental changes. Bottom water temperature and sea level ...
  • Holocene seismic activity in south-eastern Switzerland: Evidence from the sedimentary record of Lake Silvaplana 
    Bellwald, Benjamin; Nigg, Valentin; Fabbri, Stefano C.; Becker, Lukas; Gilli, Adrian; Anselmetti, Flavio S. (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2024)
    Abstract High‐Alpine regions are prone to a large variety of geohazards, among which earthquakes have the strongest impact on landscape and local population. Historic records indicate a moderate to high seismic activity ...
  • Meltwater sediment transport as the dominating process in mid-latitude trough mouth fan formation 
    Bellwald, Benjamin; Planke, Sverre; Becker, Lukas; Myklebust, Reidun (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)
    Abstract Trough mouth fans comprise the largest sediment deposits along glaciated margins, and record Pleistocene climate changes on a multi-decadal time scale. Here we present a model for the formation of the North Sea ...
