Overview

Jochen Kuss is affiliated with the University of Bremen in Germany and has contributed to research primarily within the fields of Earth and Planetary Sciences, Engineering, and Computer Science. Their work spans several subfields, including Mechanics of Materials, Paleontology, Geology, Artificial Intelligence, and Environmental Chemistry.

The scientist's research topics cover a variety of geological and geochemical areas with a focus on hydrocarbon exploration and reservoir analysis. Other main topics include paleontology and stratigraphy of fossils, geochemistry and geologic mapping, geological and geophysical studies, geological studies and exploration, methane hydrates and related phenomena, as well as geological formations and processes.

Jochen Kuss has coauthored several publications with frequent collaborators such as Fabian Käsbohrer, Rania Abu-Ali, Ahmed El-Kammar, and Thomas Voigt.

Their recent papers demonstrate engagement with stratigraphy, paleoenvironmental reconstruction, and organic-rich geological formations. These papers include:

  • "Lower Triassic (Induan) stromatolites and oolites of the Bernburg Formation revisited - microfacies and palaeoenvironment of lacustrine carbonates in Central Germany" (2021), published in Facies
  • "Chemostratigraphy of the Upper Cretaceous-Paleogene organic-rich succession on the southern Tethys margin in Egypt" (2020), published in Journal of African Earth Sciences
  • "Exkursionsführer zur Geologie des Unteren Buntsandsteins (Untertrias) zwischen Harz und Thüringer Wald" (2021), published by Digitalen Hochschulbibliothek Sachsen-Anhalt (Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Sachsen-Anhalt)

Their work appears in a range of scientific venues, including the journal Facies, Journal of African Earth Sciences, and the Digital Library of Sachsen-Anhalt.
