The Chair of Geomorphology investigates how changes in climate and human influence affect processes on the Earth's surface, but also to what extent geomorphological forms and processes provide information about the climate of the past. Our research focuses on the geomorphology of arid regions, including Central Asia, Iran and North Africa, glacial geomorphology and fluvial geomorphology in Central Europe. A central focus is the influence of current climate change on the Earth's surface processes, both in arid regions and in Central Europe.
The Chair of Geomorphology at the Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg has a vacancy for a temporary full-time position as PosDoc (m/f/d) from 01.04.2026.
Dr. Janek Walk, together with Dr. Philipp Marr and tutor Hannah Andlinger, received the Univie Teaching Award from the Faculty of Earth Sciences, Geography and Astronomy at the University of Vienna in June.
On 25 June 2025 at 16:30 there will be an information event in room 222 in the Institute of Geographie and Geology on the new Master GEOSPHERES - Geographic Science Approaches to Environmental Challenges. The event is open to all interested students!
