Bio

I am an earth scientist specialized in the development of numerical models and model-data assimilation strategies.

I am involved in projects focusing on the human – land – atmosphere nexus addressing scientific challenges including:

Understanding, quantifying and predicting pathways of sediment in a source-to-sink framework
Evolution of Earth’s surface during the Anthropocene (soil formation, transport and deposition) and its implications for environmental sustainability
Evolution of Earth's surface over geological timescales (tectonic mountain ranges and volcanoes)
The impact of mass movements on landscape evolution and sediment pathways
Learning from past landscape evolution to predict future hazard risk (landslides under a changing climate)
Transport mechanisms and mass movements in the arctic under a changing climate
