Ice Sheets, Past Climates, and Cosmic Rays


I am an Earth scientist focused on glacial geology, geochemistry, geochronology, paleoclimate, and geomorphology.

My research investigates the interplay between climate, ice sheets, and landscape evolution. I combine fieldwork, geochemical analyses, geochronological dating, remote sensing, and numerical modeling to reconstruct past ice-sheet behavior and identify the climatic forcings that drive such changes.

This interdisciplinary perspective provides essential context for interpreting today’s rapidly evolving landscapes and improves our ability to assess the future behavior of the cryosphere.
