Equipment

Lund University Palaeomagnetic Laboratory is well equipped to measure natural and artificially induced magnetisations. The "flagship" of the laboratory is a 2G-Enterprises superconducting rock magnetometer (model 760), with in-line alternating field demagnetization coils, in-line DC coil for acquisition of anhysteric remanent magnetisations and a separate off-line pulse magnetiser for acquisition

Radiocarbon Dating Laboratory

The Radiocarbon Dating Laboratory in Lund performs dating on geological and archaeological samples. Examples of material that we date are wood, charcoal, peat, macrofossils, bone and marine shells. The analyses are based on Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS).Natural 14C can be used in numerous applications, of which radiocarbon dating, with the possibility for dating back to about 50000 years, is

Radiocarbon Dating Laboratory

The Radiocarbon Dating Laboratory at Lund University performs dating on geological and archaeological samples. Examples of material that we date are wood, charcoal, charred seeds, plant macrofossils, peat, bone, burnt bone, mollusc shells, and foraminifera. We also measure 14C in modern samples for determination of biomass content in e.g. plastics, and for environmental monitoring in collaboration

Research Themes

The Department of Geology includes two sub-units organized around broad themes; Bedrock Geology and Quaternary Sciences. An important strategy is to increase collaboration across research themes. Below we present our eight research themes in short. The structure of overall research themes at the Department of Geology. The two rings represent the two units Bedrock Geology and Quaternary Sciences. T

Continental crust

growth, collision and break-up The Earth’s crust is formed and continuously reworked by magmatic and metamorphic processes as a consequence of plate tectonics and by mantle plume activity. Our research is directed towards reconstructions of continental blocks (e.g. supercontinents), terrane analysis in time and space, and crustal growth through time. Our research is done in close collaboration wit

Evolution of the biosphere

  We focus on the evolution of life and sedimentary basins through Earth’s history. The approach is multidisciplinary involving palaeontology, sedimentology, stratigraphy, and biogeochemistry, with the aim to decipher the evolution of the biosphere relative to environmental and palaeogeographical dynamics. Through petrographic and stratigraphic analysis of sedimentary rocks from around the world w

Environmental dynamics

  Within this research theme we explore natural archives to extend the temporal range of different environmental parameters. The objective is to assess the development and extent of human impact on the environment in the perspective of natural variability and change. We use biological, physical or geochemical data obtained from carefully dated natural archives as proxies for past environmental cha

Palaeoecology and palaeoclimatology

Within the research themes of palaeoecology and palaeoclimatology we primarily work throughout the Phanerozoic Eon, i.e. from the pre-Cambrian/Cambrian transition some 542 million years ago to the last geological epoch, the Holocene, in a range of terrestrial and marine environments across the globe. We investigate the taxonomic composition of various organism groups and their geochemistry in mode

Biogeochemical cycles

Biogeochemistry is the scientific discipline that involves the study of the chemical, physical, geological, and biological processes and the reactions that govern the composition and functioning of the Earth system. We are developing a predictive understanding of human-environment interactions for the future. Part of our research is focused on the human impact of inorganic and organic nutrient inp

Applied geology

Modern society is highly dependent on natural resources. Their handling and use affect occurrence, fate, behaviour and transport of contaminants in the environment, and are of great concern for ecosystems and human health. In order to sustainably utilize and secure drinking water, industrial minerals and rock resources, thereby achieving the national Swedish environmental objectives, society requi
