openKARST – A new open-source simulator for complex karst conduit networks
We are excited to announce the release of openKARST, a Python-based open-source code developed for modeling transient flow in karst conduit networks. The code is introduced in our new preprint, currently under revision at Computers & Geosciences, and available on arXiv: https://arxiv.org/abs/2503.22320 Karst systems [...]
EGU 2025 – Join us!
We are excited to highlight our established and growing session at EGU 2025, focusing on the complex dynamics of fractured-porous and karstified aquifers. With two oral time blocks and a dedicated poster session, this year’s session reflects the strong and continued interest in understanding [...]
Habilitation at the University of Göttingen: Advancing hydrogeological research across scales
I am pleased to share that I have successfully completed my Habilitation at the Faculty of Geoscience and Geography at the University of Göttingen. With this step, I have been granted the academic title Privatdozent (PD) and the formal qualification habil., which acknowledges my [...]
Field trip Slovenia
As part of the ERC project KARST (https://erc-karst.eu) we had our first annual meeting in the wonderful city of Ljubljana in Slovenia. Greeted by sunny weather we had an amazing field trip through various karst environments and cave systems. Thanks to Franci Gabrovšek who [...]
New paper in Water Resources Research
We are happy to have our most recent paper on infiltration dynamics in porous-fractured media published in Water Resources Research!http://dx.doi.org/10.1029/2023WR036323 As part of his Ph.D. Florian has developed various laboratory experiments to study steady-state and transient infiltration processes in porous-fractured systems. While his former work [...]
Congratulations Florian!
Florian successfully defended his Ph.D thesis and delivered the obligatory flower bouquet to the Gaenseliesel statue. Congratulations! His work has been a combination of extensive laboratory experiments, field work and analytical modeling to enhance the understanding of fracture-matrix interaction under partially saturated conditions. While [...]
New paper: Exploring the Impact of Climate Change on Water Resources in the Mediterranean: Insights from the Western Mountain Aquifer
Drawing upon our extensive modeling endeavors within the Western Mountain Aquifer of Israel, we are happy to announce the publication of our latest article in the Journal of Hydrology X: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2589915523000068 Climate change continues to reshape our world, and its effects on water resources [...]
Congratulations Lysander!
Lysander has defended his Ph.D. thesis and finally received the obligatory hat, kissed the beautiful Gaenseliesel, and showed off his climbing skills 😉 His work has strongly contributed to a better understanding of recharge mechanisms in large karst aquifers such as the Western Mountain [...]
