Carl Alwmark is a Senior Lecturer at Lund University in the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences. His primary research focuses on impact cratering and planetary geology, aiming to understand the evolution and dynamics of the solar system as influenced by planetary impact events. Alwmark's work emphasizes the importance of impact cratering as a geological process that plays a significant role in the evolution of planets. His studies involve terrestrial impact craters and extraterrestrial materials, including micrometeorites and meteorites from asteroids. His research involves various methodologies, including novel radiometric techniques to constrain the ages of impact craters, verifying suspected impact sites, analyzing shock metamorphic features, and identifying impactor structures through geochemical anomalies. Alwmark is also involved in understanding the transport mechanisms of cosmic material to Earth, focusing on isotopic measurements of noble gases in meteoritic material. He is actively working on multiple research projects, including U-Pb dating of impact structures and exploring the evolution of differentiated asteroids.
Includes Master of Science in Politics and Society of the Contemporary Middle East and European Affairs.
