Biography

Micha Ruhl is Assistant Professor in Sedimentology at Trinity College Dublin. Before joining TCD in March 2018, Micha worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the Department of Earth Sciences, University of Oxford, UK (2013–2018) and the Nordic Centre for Earth Evolution, University of Copenhagen, Denmark (2010–2013). Before that he was a researcher at the Geological Survey of the Netherlands (TNO-NITG, 2010). Micha did his PhD at Utrecht University, the Netherlands (2006–2010), where he also did his BSc and MSc.

Technical description

Micha Ruhl’s research focuses on past global change events, such as global Mass Extinction and Oceanic Anoxic Events (OAEs), to constrain the processes that govern (changes in) the Earth system.

Particularly, he is interested in understanding the link between Large Igneous Province volcanism, (past) changes in global (bio)geochemical cycles, palaeoclimate and –(depositional) environments, and past changes in biodiversity and ecosystems.

For this he studies sedimentary archives from geographically widespread marine and continental (also lacustrine) basins in Europe, North and South America, Africa and Asia.
