    Research interests

    Sedimentology and stratigraphy with a focus on the geology of Svalbard and NE Greenland and use these areas as large-scale field laboratories to understand the subsurface of the Barents Sea and adjacent basins.

    • Process-based sedimentology focusing on understanding sediment transport from fluvial to deep-marine depositional environments
    • Reconstruction of depositional environments and facies belts to understand and predict sediment distribution
    • Sequence stratigraphy and factors controlling sedimentation and basin fill architectures

     

    Teaching

    Teaches the following courses: GEO-3112 (sedimentary processes and products) and Geo-3113 (field course in exogene geology). Will take over the teaching responsibility of GEO-2007 (historical nd regional geology) from the fall of 2023. Periodical teaching assistant in AG-323 (sequence stratigraphy) at UNIS.
