Department of Geology Ghent University
Geology Vrije Universiteit Brussel
DGLG focuses its activities on Earth and environmental sciences, which means a broad scope of interests. The experimental approach using 'isotope geology' is original and unique in Flanders. The department' labs host several mass spectrometers for the precise determination of several key isotopic systems. The isotopes are powerful geological tools, with a broad range of application, often resulting in stimulating inter-university projects and ...
Isotope Geology and Evolution of Paleo-Environmnents Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The group GEOL studies the evolution of the environments throughout Earth history. The topics encompasses paleoclimatic research in the last few million years, essentially by investigating the continental record and second documenting the origins and consequences of major biological and climatic changes throughout geological time. Cratering processes by asteroid and comet impacts on Earth (or other planet) constitutes a major research topic ...
Division of Geology KU Leuven
The researchers from the Department of Geology concentrate on the study of Planet Earth. In particular we study the geosphere – the ‘solid’ Earth – and try to figure out the significance of processes in the geosphere with respect to the functioning of Earth’s systems from global to local scale. In our research we look into ‘deep time’, but always in the perspective of the challenges our society faces today and in the future. Besides the ...

AMPHIBIAN EVOLUTION LAB (Prof. Franky Bossuyt) http://www.amphibia.be ABSTRACT: Research centers around the use of molecular phylogenetics to elucidate evolutionary patterns, and the processes that produce them, in amphibians. We are trying to understand the relationship between tempo and mode of evolution in relation to biogeography, speciation and morphological diversification. Our research also integrates this phylogenetic background with ...
