Juliane Müller

Dr. Juliane Müller is a Geoscientist and Researcher at the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI), specializing in Marine Geology with a focus on high-latitude paleoclimates, sea ice dynamics, and biomarker proxies. She leads the Organic Geochemistry Laboratories and co-leads major projects like the ERC Synergy Grant 'i2B' and the MARUM Excellence Cluster (Ocean Floor). Her work integrates sedimentological, geochemical, and biomarker data to reconstruct past environmental changes in polar regions.

• Deputy Section Head, AWI
• Head of Organic Geochemistry Laboratories
• Co-PI for international grants and networks

Her research emphasizes sea ice variability, glacial history, and Southern Ocean dynamics, with recent expeditions including PS128 to the Weddell Sea. Key publications analyze Holocene glacial activity, Antarctic ice sheet sensitivity, and Pliocene climate transitions. Müller collaborates globally, contributing to initiatives like the PalaeoArc network and IODP expeditions.
