Overview

Beat Müller is affiliated with the University of Basel in Switzerland. Their research primarily focuses on environmental science and earth and planetary sciences, with particular involvement in subfields such as environmental chemistry, ecology, pollution, oceanography, and geochemistry and petrology.

Their work extensively covers topics including soil and water nutrient dynamics, wastewater treatment and nitrogen removal, aquatic ecosystems and phytoplankton dynamics, marine and coastal ecosystems, microbial community ecology and physiology, aquatic invertebrate ecology and behavior, and coastal wetland ecosystem dynamics.

Beat Müller has published in several scientific venues, with frequent contributions to Environmental Science & Technology, Aquatic Sciences, Limnology and Oceanography, mSphere, and Chemical Geology.

Notable recent publications include:

  • "Hypolimnetic oxygen depletion rates in deep lakes: Effects of trophic state and organic matter accumulation" (2020, Limnology and Oceanography)
  • "Microbial Nitrogen Transformation Potential in Sediments of Two Contrasting Lakes Is Spatially Structured but Seasonally Stable" (2022, mSphere)
  • "Nitrogen removal processes in lakes of different trophic states from on-site measurements and historic data" (2021, Aquatic Sciences)
  • "Net Ecosystem Production of Lakes Estimated From Hypolimnetic Organic Carbon Sinks" (2021, Water Resources Research)
  • "Denitrification and Nitrogen Burial in Swiss Lakes" (2022, Environmental Science & Technology)

Beat Müller collaborates frequently with several co-authors including Alfred Wüest, Kathrin Baumann, Thomas Steinsberger, Cameron M. Callbeck, and Robert Niederdorfer. These collaborations have resulted in multiple joint publications across various topics related to aquatic ecosystems and biogeochemical processes.
