SIA MethodThe Self-Integrating Accumulator (SIA) method measures the total losses of a wide range of chemical substances from the root zone or into the groundwater. It does not interfere with superficial activities like ploughing and samples all solutes of interest from the soil leachate. more...
Field InvestigationsWith more than 100 fields under study, we are very experienced in the transport of nutrients and contaminants in soil and water. more...
Laboratory InvestigationsWe conduct experiments to analyze the processes and interaction strengths of contaminants or nutrients in the soil-water system. This may be useful to assess risks in the environment or understand the behavior of substances in special circumstances. more...
Data EvaluationFrom our large field and laboratory data sets and the wide range of studies we have already performed we have a thorough understanding of environmental data. We can use this to evaluate your data and interpret the underlying mechanisms and reasons. more...
GISWe use Geographical Information Systems (GIS) like ArcGIS® and other programs as tools for the visualization and interpretation of spatial data. Also, we calculate the effects of land use scenarios on different indicators using GIS. more...
