My research efforts in the past several yeMy research efforts in the past several years focused on the identification and categorization of fluvial surficial patterns that emerge in response to various tectonic kinematic regimes, and on the possibility and techniques for inferring 3D tectonic rates and modes of deformation from fluvial patterns. My main research tool is numerical modelling. </br></br>By attending the workshop, I hope to learn about challenges and to participate in and contribute to discussions that address outstanding questions with regard to the coupled interactions between tectonic and surface processes.</br>I’m listing here five questions that emerge from recent discussions that I had with various colleagues and relate to this coupling:</br>1. What is the degree of uniqueness of the interpretation of surficial patterns as an outcome of tectonic deformation?</br>2. What are the scales over which tectonics affects surface processes and surface processes affect the state of stress in the crust and in the lithosphere? </br>3. As the above scales are expected to differ, what kind of numerical schemes could bridge over the various scales? </br>4. How geologic structures interact with surface processes? and how can these interactions be represented in numerical models?</br>5. How can we learn about past and present planetary tectonic activity from planetary surface observations?</br></br>I hope that insights and tools derived from the workshop will serve me as a teacher of undergraduate and graduate students by providing motivations and perspectives for explaining and demonstrating the coupling between the two fields (that are perceived by many students as independent). As a supervisor of graduate students, I hope to learn how to guide them in exploring broader implications of their research to the interactions between tectonic and surface processes, and as an investigator in this field, I hope to be able to contribute to discussions that address the directions in which the community should be heading, to learn about new tools and approaches that can be adopted in my research, and to form new collaborations. research, and to form new collaborations.
