Research Statement
The arrival of glaciations and large ice caps from high- to mid-latitude in the Late Cenozoic has profoundly reshaped mountain topographies, by shifting the dominant surface and erosion processes at play. The existing interaction between climate, erosion and Tectonic, led to suggest that glaciations could have had a significant impact on Late Cenozoic dynamic of mountain belts. However, evidence for this significant impact is still lacking today. I aim to better understand the role of Plio-Quaternary glaciations on the landscape morphology, erosion, and the dynamic of mountain belts. To this end, I use a multi-approach combining glacial numerical modelling, modelling and analyses of low-temperature thermochronology data, and geomorphological analyses.
