Kay-Christian Emeis

Kay-Christian Emeis is a German geologist and an academic. He is a retired professor in the Department of Earth Sciences at Universität Hamburg (UHH) in Germany.

Emeis' research centers on geochemistry and isotope geochemistry in both ancient and modern environments, with a particular emphasis on oxygen-deficient settings. His scientific contributions include clarifying the paleoclimatic and paleoceanographic record of the Mediterranean Sea during the Pleistocene, characterizing the geochemical and isotopic profiles of upwelling environments, and tracing eutrophication in coastal seas using stable isotope signatures of nitrogen.
