Geo Scientific Services

Classical geological and geotechnical tasks are the characterization and classification of soil and sediments as well as their evaluation in a variety of (legal) contexts. This is mostly needed in the context of waste declaration and recycling (contaminated sites/brownfields, soil management) or for engineering tasks required for foundations. We perform all necessary field and lab experiments and can provide you with an expert inspection. In addition, we offer construction measures surveillance as an independent inspector within the framework of self and external monitoring.

Geologic Mapping and Documentation

We tackle the complexity of geologic maps with an interdisciplinary approach. The typical geological tasks include strike and dip mapping, the recording of topography/morphology as well as the analysis of drilling samples and geophysical measurements. In addition, we utilize mapping procedures in the fields of biology and ecology. The focus here are the recording of species population and migration together with ecochemical analysis.

Documentation is the basis of all scientific work. Our abilities range from technical documentation for evidence collection and documentation of exploratory projects via photography and video to documentation of an unusual or special kind. For this purpose, we work closely with our partners from different disciplines of visual media.

Execution, Support and Organisation of Sampling Campaigns

We perform all kinds of samplings (soil, rock, water, gas, biomes), adjusted to the specific problem (e.g. Contaminated sites/brow fields, chemical analysis, geotechnical laboratory exploration) and in consideration of the required quality of the samples. We would be happy to discuss with you any options and methods suitable for your needs. Of cause, we can also assist you with scientific advice during any of your own sampling campaigns or aid you in organisational matters or regarding planning tasks.

Environmental Sciences

The fields of earth and environmental sciences are closely connected and show many parallels in their methodology. However, it is important to differentiate between the focus points of the scientific work in these fields. For us ecosystems and their dynamics are paramount in environmental sciences. Our range of offers includes working with aquatic as well as terrestrial systems. Thereby, our methods are not limited to work above the water surface, but are unrestricted, since we utilise Scientific Divers (cf. Scientific Diving - LINK).

Sampling, Mapping, Monitoring

The qualitative and quantitative characterisation of water bodies, the evaluation of water quality as well as long-term monitoring of the evolution of ecosystems are all at the core of our work.

Thematic mapping and analysis, together with the monitoring of biological populations are all additions to our range of services. Of course, all our work complies with the requirements of the respective guidelines (water framework directive, ...).

Scientific Diving
Scientific Services

Scientific Diving is the application of scientific methods by specially trained scientists under water. At its core, it is the transfer of established exploration procedures and expertise to the medium of water which traditionally is awkward and hard to control for humans. Our interdisciplinary approach includes fundamental questions from the field of earth sciences as well as biological and chemical methods.
By means of on-site explorations and the resulting proximity to the specimen we ensue drastic improvements in quality and quantity of the extrapolated data. Compared to selective approaches from above the surface we gain a comprehensive and detailed impression of the investigated area.

Simply put:
We directly see the exact spot which we analyse or take samples and measurements from.

Areas of Application

Recurring tasks for under water operations include mapping, sampling (soil, rock, water, gas, biomes), chemical and physical measurements (e.g. Temperature, pH, Eh) as well as monitoring of specimens and geochronological sampling. High quality documentation by means of photography and videos are the basis for further processing and analysis above the water.
We would be happy to offer you solutions to complex situations.

Qualification and Safety

Our Scientific Divers are by default certified by the world underwater federation CMAS. Depending on their individual training progress and field experience the divers are graduated as “CMAS Scientific Diver”, “CMAS Confirmed Scientific Diver” or “CMAS Scientific Diving Instructor”. These additional occupational trainings include, depending on the organisational branch, a theoretical and practical training over the course of several month and assessments of the trainee by means of several exams. They ensure safe and practice-oriented, scientific operations under water while following all usual quality assuring measures.

Our work always follows the highest safety standards. We follow special work instructions, developed in collaboration with universities, insurance providers and trade associations, to guarantee the safety of our staff for us and our customers. The applied measures range from objective risk analysis and mandatory comprehensive documentation to project or operation specific safety concepts.
Moreover, our staff visits additional educational courses and trainings on a regular basis, including non-diving subjects such as operations management or advanced life support training.

Your Advantage

By utilizing Scientific Divers we offer you a precise execution of a given task with high quality results which would not be obtainable in the same fashion from above the water’s surface. Since our engineers are working on site, they are able to make observations which they can utilise for their decision making, choice of methods and later evaluation. Our experience has shown how much the situation at the investigated site or the state of the specimen can differ from the circumstances expected by the client. For this reason, we work very closely with the contact person above the water, to ensure a clear and immediate communication based on a high-quality documentation by means of photos and videos.

Hydraulic Structure Inspection

In collaboration with the certified experts of our partner, DEKRA Industrial, we perform inspections on hydraulic structures. Our innovative concept enables us to provide an objective grading based on hard facts and numbers. This leads to structured and independent analysis and planning for a maintenance and servicing schedule. By comparing the individual gradings, we can compile a ranking which outlines and summarises the optimal course of action for the management.
We have presented our concept for the first time at the annual meeting of the ICOLD 2017 in Prague. Please find a related article of ours here.

Technical Documentation

The scientific methods for the creation of a comprehensible and comprehensive documentation often can also be applied to technical questions. Depending on the circumstances on location our integrated documentations can include technical drawings, scans or photo and video documentation. Under water we are the eyes of our clients - no matter what. Our goal is to inform our associate above the water in a quality, as if he had been at the location himself.

Construction Surveillance and Inspection

The construction sites of hydraulic structures such as dams are seldom subject to the usual bodies for construction auditing or self and third-party monitoring. In our experience, costly and time intensive reworking or repairs can be avoided from the start, when checks and documentation are executed consequently and are already in place during the early construction phases. This creates safety for both the executing contractor as well as the project owner.
In addition, the actual circumstances on site often differ significantly from the anticipated situation. The exploration of the area by Scientific Divers in earlier project phases provides more safety for the planning and allows for optimised budgeting.

Special Equipment
Underwater Measuring Techniques

In order to identify physical and chemical parameters (e.g. Temperature, redox potential, pH-Value) we adapt standardized measuring techniques for under water usage. For these, precision and handling are the main focus. In cooperation with our partners at BS-Kinetics we work on flexible solutions, which enhance the usability and efficiency Certain housings can for example be use for a whole line of products of some measuring equipment manufacturers . All our systems are robust, have been tested in extreme situations in the field and undergo constant development towards perfection.

Special Equipment
Sampling Instruments

For under water operations we have developed dedicated sampling devices for different fields of deployment and areas of focus. It is of utmost importance for us, that all techniques are proven to be robust and show flawless applicability in practice.

Our systems allow for rock sampling of disturbed and undisturbed samples of Depending on the task multiple approaches are possible.

For water samples we offer solutions for both mix and point samples, which enables the accurate extraction of certain water phases from another (e.g. Sources of contamination). We use sterilizable glass containers and can guarantee highest safety due to our specialized manufacturing methods.

For extraction of pure gas phases from gas vents and achieving the needed quality, which allows for further analysis (e.g. trace elements), we offer flexible system solutions. You can choose between different gas volumes for you samples, in order to better meet the requirements of you analysis.

You can find the exact specifications and an assortment of possible configurations in the Downloads section.

All our systems are custom made and can be adjusted flexibly to fit your needs. We would be happy to offer our advice and to send an you an individual offer.

Geology of Submarine Hydrothermal Vents near Panarea, Italy

Volcanoes, hydrothermal systems and their respective ecosystem types occur worldwide and are characterised by very special and highly variable geological, ecological and pysicochemical parameters. The CMAS Scientific Diving Center at the TU Mining Academy in Freiberg therefore explores this volcanic system of Panarea since the year 2006. Since 2010 we are involved in these explorations regularly and support the project in the field of earth sciences.
The system is a unique example for an active, shallow marine extreme ecosystem and a natural laboratory for assessing a multitude of topics like ocean acidification, geothermal energy or ecosystem analysis.
Our work as Scientific Divers allows us to witness the formation of geological structures from up close. To harness this unique opportunity to its full potential we utilize interdisciplinary approaches. Our working groups combine geology, (micro) biology, hydrology and even material sciences as well as mechanical engineering.

Interdisciplinary Documentation of Hydrothermal Vents in Northern Iceland

Another exciting topic in our research activities are hydrothermal vents in northern Iceland. In comparison to the system close to Panarea, the system in the Akureyri fjord shows completely different environmental conditions. But we could still find and record an astounding amount of similarities.
The almost 45m high vents protrude vertically from the bottom of the ocean into the sub polar see. The discharging hydrothermal fluids are the reason for a constant precipitation at the outlets, which enables you to “watch” the vents grow.
After all, the strictly protected area still holds many unanswered questions. Future explorations will for example touch subjects like hydrodynamics and thermodynamics as well as ecosystem analysis.

Reconstruction of Paleorivers

River systems shape terrestrial environments significantly. Mountain ranges get eroded, materials get transported and reworked; the terrain becomes more balanced. The newly created sediments and rocks are a product of a highly complex formation history and at times offer an important resource potential. The analysis of fluvial sediments is an integral scientific branch, which we support during several subprojects. The focus of these are facies analysis, paleo milieus and geomorphology.

Research and Development for the Optimisation of Underwater Applications

As Scientific Divers there usually don’t exist mass-produced devices for our purposes. However, to operate on a high level of quality and speed, we rely on our in-house production (see specialized devices LINK). Many challenges we face can not be solved with minor adjustments to existing equipment, which is the reason, why we conduct R&D projects for optimization analyses and conceptualization of new devices.
In cooperation with the Institute of Drilling Engineering and Fluid Mining of the TU Mining Academy in Freiberg we developed a mobile airlift for Scientific Divers. This device serves the purpose of clearing or cleaning structures covered by sediments, mainly in sedimentological under water research or during technical documentations. The system was specifically designed for the needs of Scientific Divers. The completely self-sufficient design eliminates unwieldy tubes running to the surface and enables unrestricted mobility.
