Research focuses on coastal and hydraulic engineering, including wave dynamics, sediment transport, offshore renewable energy systems, and climate adaptation strategies. He leads experimental studies using facilities like the GWK+ large wave flume and applies innovative methods such as UAV monitoring and machine learning.
Recent work addresses challenges like microplastic transport in marine environments, eco-engineering solutions for coastal protection, and long-term morphodynamic changes in the Wadden Sea and Baltic coasts. His publications span experimental benchmarking of coastal structures, biogenic reef impacts, and offshore wind farm scour dynamics.
He actively participates in collaborative research initiatives such as the Collaborative Research Centre 1463, advancing integrated design methodologies for offshore megastructures. Professional service roles include advising on academic governance and distance education programs.
