SFB 806 D3: Human Impact and Colluvial Sediment Storages in Europe since the Neolithic
Project
Project code: DFG SFB 806
Contract period: 01.01.2009
- 31.12.2009
Purpose of research: Basic research
Human migration from Africa to Europe, particularly during the Holocene, is associated with human impacts on the Earth’s environment. To understand cultureenvironment interactions in terms of human mobility necessitates understanding the human impact on geomorphic hillslope systems. The main objective of this project is the link between human impact, soil erosion and colluvial deposition at hillslope systems. We will develop a human impact proxy of colluvial systems, which includes the spatial and temporal differences of system response magnitudes at the hillslope scale.
