Areas of interest:

Geomorphology, surface processes, Quaternary climate change 

Education:

Ph.D., Geology, University of Washington, 1997

Current Research:

My research ideally involves a strong field component, on the one hand consisting of the identification of structures and relations, as well as sampling and data gathering, and on the other hand computer modeling which provides a rigorous framework to analyze and organize observations. These two aspects allow effective testing of hypotheses and guide my research to sensitive areas of a particular problem.

Specific research interests:

• Analysis of current and Quaternary landscape evolution through computer modeling and cosmogenic isotope analysis of field samples.

• Studies of the periglacial processes and the effects of climate change on Arctic and Antarctic environment.
