Short presentation
I am a water and climate researcher focusing on water-human-ecosystem interactions in response to climate change. My research ranges from Arctic catchment science to interdisciplinary work on natural hazards and disaster risk reduction. I use open Earth observation data to examine spatial and temporal patterns in hydrological changes and their feedback with climate, landscape, and human factors.
Teaching in courses: 1HY043; 1HY044; 1HY141; 1TV017; 1GE072, and coordinates CNDS PhD course.
