Matthias Kuhle
Matthias Kuhle (Everest north slope, Central Rongbuk Glacier)
Born (1948-04-20) April 20, 1948 (age 76)

Matthias Kuhle (born 20 April 1948) is a German geographer and professor at the University of Göttingen. He edits the book series Geography International published by Shaker Verlag.

Education and career

He studied German Philology, Geography, Philosophy at the Free University of Berlin; 1972 Final examination (Staatsexamen). Then he changed to the University of Göttingen for his doctor degree (Doctorate (PhD)) (1975) with the subjects: Geography, Geology, Philosophy and a monography on the Geomorphology and former Glaciation of South-Iranian High Mountains. 1980 the habilitation in Geography followed with a monography on: Dhaulagiri- and Annapurna Himalaya (Nepal): A Contribution to the Geomorphology of extreme High Mountains. 1983 he was appointed a Professor of Geography at the University of Göttingen and 1990 a full Professor of Geography and High Mountain Geomorphology in Göttingen.

His main areas of research are the mountain ranges and plateaus of High- and Central Asia, the Andes and the Arctic. Since 1973 he undertook there many research expeditions of several months.

Kuhle’s priority program of research is High Mountain Ecology, Periglacial and Glacial Geomorphology, Climatology, Ice Age research (Paleoclimatology), Glaciology and Science Theory. His work focusses on the reconstruction of the former ice cover of High and Central Asia, caused by the plate tectonic-induced uplift of the Tibetan Plateau and surrounding mountain areas above the snowline. His theory of Ice Age Development during the Pleistocene is based on this reconstruction and his measurements of radiation energy and budget in subtropic areas of high altitude. Kuhle's idea of an ice sheet covering practically the entire Tibetan Plateau has been opposed by several glacial geologists (cf. Derbyshire et al. 1991; Rutter 1995; Zheng and Rutter 1998; Owen et al. 2005; Lehmkuhl and Owen 2005). These doubts are based on geomorphology and numerical dating.
