Field of work

I am a Quaternary geologist mainly interested in glacial deposits, glacier dynamics, reconstructing former glacial extent, as well as understanding and quantifying earth surface processes and their effect on landscape evolution. I am currently enrolled in the RAW project and the JOSTICE project.

My research interests are:

  • Quaternary geology and palaeoclimate
  • Glacial geology and glaciology
  • Climate change and palaeoclimatic reconstruction from sedimentary archives
  • Geohazards
  • Geomorphology
