My PhD title is ‘Evolution of emerging post-glacial landscapes induced by a changing climate.’

In many parts of the world, glacial landscapes are undergoing a rapid transition to post-glacial conditions in response to ice loss. How these changes impact on landscape morphology and landscape processes is poorly understood however. The aim of this project is therefore to improve our knowledge of the processes and timescales involved in landscape evolution in these regions.

I’m fascinated by mountain environments and the impacts of climate change upon them. Whilst studying for my undergraduate degree, I also developed a keen interest in using remotely sensed data to monitor changes at the Earth’s surface. This project represented an opportunity for me to combine my passions whilst continuing to deepen my knowledge and develop as a researcher.
