Research interests<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Since completing my Bachelor\u2019s degree in Physics, I have been curious about water-related phenomena and the physics of environmental systems. My current Master\u2019s thesis focuses on the surface layer of Lake Geneva. It investigates how atmospheric forcings determine the physical structure and dynamics of Lake Geneva\u2019s surface layer, primarily based on measurements I carry out on the L\u00e9XPLORE platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of my Master\u2019s degree in Environmental Sciences with a major in Atmosphere and Climate, I have explored topics ranging from atmospheric processes, weather and cloud physics, to lacustrine sedimentation, physical processes in lakes and rivers, and groundwater flow. I particularly enjoy exploring these topics through experimentation, both in the laboratory and in the field:  to determine what to measure and how, to identify the limitations and challenges involved, and to understand what the measurements can reveal about the underlying processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
