Dr. Benjamin Schwarz is a geophysicist who has conducted extensive research at Oxford and Potsdam in earthquake seismology, applied seismics, ground-penetrating radar, and distributed fiber-optic strain measurements. At Fraunhofer IWES, he serves as Scientific Coordinator for Offshore Wind Energy, specializing in geotechnical site investigation and support structures. He has recently contributed to significant cross-scale research on seismic diffraction imaging.
Precise knowledge of the seabed is crucial for a successful expansion of offshore wind energy. At Fraunhofer IWES, we rely on high-resolution seismic methods that provide detailed insights into the upper 100 meters of the subsurface.
