Martin Krech

Dr. Martin Krech is a researcher at the Institute of Geography and Geology, Julius-Maximilians-University Würzburg, specializing in physical geography and soil science. His work focuses on geoarchaeology, landscape dynamics, and natural hazard analysis.

• Education: Diploma in Geography, Geology, and Mineralogy (2012) and PhD (2018) from JMU Würzburg
• Projects: ERDF-MainPro (Ecosystem-based Solutions), DFG-funded paleopedological studies

His research explores pedosedimentary archives in prehistoric sites, karst geomorphology, and climate change impacts on geo-ecosystems. Recent publications analyze Holocene valley fills, gypsum karst dolines, and climate adaptation strategies for agriculture.

Key collaborations include the Geomorphological and Soil Science Laboratory and partnerships with Bavarian environmental agencies. He contributes to fieldwork, laboratory analyses, and GIS/dron-based hazard assessments.
