Topics for final theses
We supervise theses in the study programs Environmental Meteorology (B.Sc.), Meteorology (B.Sc., M.Sc.), and Environmental Engineering (M.Sc.) in the fields of boundary-layer meteorology, environmental meteorology, and flow simulation—particularly with reference to the PALM simulation model, which we develop and operate. If you are looking for a topic for your thesis, feel free to get in touch. We are happy to work with you to find a suitable topic and support you throughout your work. In general, we only offer topics with a direct connection to boundary-layer meteorology, for example in the following areas:
-
Development of low-cost sensors for urban climate monitoring as part of citizen science projects
-
Measurement of boundary-layer processes, e.g., using laser scintillometers, drones, or disdrometers
-
Effects of wind turbines on the atmospheric boundary layer
-
Applied urban climatology (e.g., assessment of climate adaptation measures, traffic-induced turbulence)
-
Heat exchange in polar leads
-
Flow structures in the stable boundary layer
-
Monin-Obukhov similarity theory
-
Investigation of the life cycle of radiation fog
