He researched the mesoscale dynamics of the atmosphere over complex topography, local wind systems and biometeorology. He gave lectures on measurement and observation methods , agricultural meteorology and (also at the University of Konstanz ) atmospheric physics. He was significantly involved in the ALPine EXperiment ALPEX and the Mesoscale Alpine Program (a research project on weather processes in the Alpine region).
