KIT and BGR Develop Forecast Models on the Future Development of Groundwater Levels Based on Artificial Intelligence

On Thursday, September 23, 2021, from 10:45 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., Prof. Dr. Nico Goldscheider will take part in the GeoKarlsruhe 2021 panel discussion on "Groundwater and Drinking Water - Challenges due to Climate Change and Land Use".

Hydrogeologen des KIT untersuchen die Wasserqualität am Blautopf in Blaubeueren, um Erkenntnisse für Karstaquifere weltweit zu gewinnen. Das im August 2020 begonnene Projekt IMPART ist auf drei Jahre ausgelegt.

The prize is awarded for outstanding master's and doctoral theses written at KIT institutes with a focus on geosciences and environmental sciences.

KIT Hydrogeology has been active in hydrogeological karst research for decades and participates, among other things, through lectures at the IYCK. A recent film by Uwe Krüger shows the diversity of caves and karst landscapes, their value as ecosystems and water resources, but also their vulnerability and threats. The film also includes several scenes from our research projects (e.g. marking experiment starting at minute 3:38).

Prof. Nico Goldscheider can be seen in a report on the P.M. Wissen programme on Servus TV. Here he gives insights into our research in Kleinwalsertal in Austria, one of the test regions of our KARMA project. The World Karstaquifer Map (WOKAM) can also be seen.

On Thursday, 15 October, the official handover of the decision on the project Nitrate Monitoring 4.0 - Intelligent Systems for Sustainable Reduction of Nitrate in Groundwater took place in Karlsruhe. The decision, worth 2.5 million euros, was presented by the Parliamentary State Secretary of the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety, Rita Schwarzelühr-Sutter. Dr. Tanja Liesch was on site for KIT along with other representatives of politics and the project partners.

On Tuesday evening, 12.03.2019 at 9 pm, the WDR broadcast the Quarks programme about caves. In the program Prof. Dr. Nico Goldscheider and Dr. Zhao Chen performed. Our topics in the article "Cave Groundwater" are research in the Blauhöhle and the Blautopf, and the World Karstaquifer Map (WOKAM).
