The main objective of the Department of Geophysics and Sedimentary Basins is to describe and analyze the geological evolution of sedimentary basins and their resources in and around Denmark and Greenland. Our work is based on data from deep wells and seismic surveys, as well as samples from wells and outcrops. Research includes on clastic and carbonate sedimentology, micro and macropalaeontology, palynology, and litho-, bio- and sequence stratigraphy, depositional models, palaeogeography, -climate, -ecology, geothermal energy and storage of CO₂.
