Personal profile
Short presentation
My research is focused on the changing glaciers of our planet. I study how the ice is changing when climate shifts, and how these changes are affecting our landscapes and global systems. I am very interested in expanding our knowledge on past glaciers fluctuations, and belive that getting a better handle on past dynamics will give us better predictions on future changes.
My current projects are AIR ANTARCTICA, funded by the VILLUM FOUNDATION and HIGHSPEED, funded by the Carlsberg Foundation.
