معرفی
Lars Rosen is a Professor in the Department of Geology and Geotechnology at Chalmers University of Technology, where he leads the Technical Geology research group. He serves as the responsible person for the Forum for Risk Investigation and Sustainable Technology (FRIST) competence center and works as a supervisor and specialist in risk management within the DRICKS research program.
Professor Rosen's research spans hydrogeology and environmental engineering, with a primary focus on vulnerability assessments, risk assessment, and decision-making methodological support for water protection and remediation of contaminated soil, groundwater, and drinking water. His work integrates technical, economic, and environmental perspectives to develop practical solutions for complex water resource challenges.
Analysis of his recent publications reveals a strong emphasis on risk-based decision support systems, particularly for hydrogeological risks in underground construction, contaminated site remediation, and drinking water protection. His research increasingly incorporates sustainability assessment frameworks, cost-benefit analysis, and ecosystem service valuation into traditional engineering approaches.
Professor Rosen actively leads and participates in numerous research projects, including FRIST, DRICKS, and several EU-funded initiatives focused on risk assessment, sustainable remediation, and water resource management. His work demonstrates strong collaboration with researchers across multiple disciplines and institutions.
His research group, Technical Geology, focuses on applying geological knowledge to engineering problems, particularly those related to groundwater, soil contamination, and risk assessment. The group works closely with industry and government agencies to translate research findings into practical applications for environmental protection and sustainable development.
