Leon is a PhD candidate in the Mountain Hydrology group at Utrecht University. For his PhD project he focuses on the effect that mountain greening has on the hydrology in the Meretschi catchment in the Swiss Alps. During the project he will combine lab work, fieldwork, experiments and modelling to […]
Florian is a glaciologist in the Mountain Hydrology group at Utrecht University. For his PhD project, he studies calving glaciers in Greenland, focusing on lake-terminating glaciers and their response to the climate crisis. He combines satellite and UAV remote sensing, numerical modelling, and field methods to investigate the role of […]
Caroline’s work focuses on understanding how mountain catchments, specifically ones with glaciers, are changing in a warming climate and how that affects the downstream water supply. She completed her Ph.D. in at the University of Saskatchewan, Canada, in 2022, during which she assessed the changes in the hydrology of glacierized basins […]
Pranisha has a background in Civil Engineering specialising in Hydropower and with four years of experience working in Nepal’s Hydropower sector, she is passionate about water resources. Pursuing a master’s at IHE Delft, the Netherlands focused on Hydrology and Water resource further fueled her research interest and now she is […]
Faezeh researches cryosphere mass loss, its contribution to sea-level rise, and its potential risk for downstream regions. Topics of particular interest to her include past, present and future behaviour of marine- and lake-terminating glaciers, key drivers of glacier calving, the formation and expansion of proglacial lakes, glacial lake outburst floods, […]
Varvara (Varya) Bazilova is a hydrologist by training interested in the cryosphere and remote sensing. She obtained her BSc degree in hydrometeorology from Lomonosov Moscow State University with the thesis related to the estimation of the suspended sediment budget in a pro glacier river and MSc degree in geosciences from […]
Emmy holds a master degree in hydrology from Utrecht University. As part of her master she did courses at the University Centre in Svalbard to study glaciology and snow dynamics. Her master research focused on combining remote sensing, field observations and a snow model to estimate snow water equivalent and […]
Philip Kraaijenbrink (1987) is Assistant Professor in Quantitative Methods in Extreme Environments. He works on the integrating large-scale satellite image analysis, unmanned aerial systems (UASs), climate data analysis, glacio-hydrological modelling, and vegetation modelling to study the past, present and future water cycle. He is part of the Mountain Hydrology group of […]
