Katrina is a postdoctoral researcher working on the MegaWat project, where she studies how mountain regions across Europe buffer against downstream droughts using land surface process modeling. She completed her PhD at ETH Zurich in Switzerland, studying the tectonic evolution of mountain landscapes and how long-term geomorphic dynamics influence biodiversity […]

René Wijngaard currently works as a postdoctoral researcher in the ERC-funded DROP project, using the WRF (Weather Research & Forecasting) model to understand the drivers and origins of high-altitude precipitation at different scales in High Mountain Asia. He received his PhD degree in Physical Geography at Utrecht University in 2019, […]
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 […]
Léo Martin works at understanding the environmental changes that occur on the Tibetan Plateau. He is mainly focused on unraveling the changes in permafrost and the active layer, how they contribute to the water balance of the Plateau and whether they affect hydrological system. To do so, he combines field observations […]
Fanny has worked on remote sensing of glaciers. From small scale analyses of debris-covered glaciers to large scale mapping of glacier mass balances across High Mountain Asia. At present she focuses on Tibetan Plateau lake and glacier changes.
Maxime focuses his efforts on linking broadscale climate to glacier and snow melt. He has spent a lot of time in the field in Nepal building weather stations and gathering data to validate what he sees in the remote sensing data.
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 […]
Arthur is a physical geographer with a solid background in hydrology, hydrological modelling, GIS, remote sensing and cryospheric sciences. His expertises include hydrological modelling at scales ranging from large river basins to small catchments, climate change impacts for future water resources, simulation models, data analysis, hydro-meteorological monitoring in the field, […]
Remco is a postdoc studying the climate of High Mountain Asia. He has a MSc. degree in aerospace engineering, but spend his PhD degree and the first ten years of his research career studying the atmospheres of worlds in our solar system and beyond. He mainly used spectroscopic remote sensing […]
