My research primarily focuses on exploring … My research primarily focuses on exploring the geomorphic response to tectonic movement at mountain range scale, in particular along convergent margins across the globe. My approach is heavily dependent on numerical methods for which I model kinematic velocity fields based on realistic fault geometries that are then fed into landscape evolution models. This integration allows me to efficiently combine realistic bedrock motion with surface processes in a controlled environment to study how landscapes adjust to such motion. In an advanced step kinematic models can be derived from more complex, possibly multiple, palinspastic reconstructions across fold-thrust belts and also used to model crustal heat transfer to predict cooling ages. From here an entire set of tools would be available to be applied in the field to test such numerically generated landscapes, e.g. comparison of topographic features, river profile analysis, comparison of measured and predicted thermochronological ages in bedrock and as detrital signal. </br> However, this approach does face, not unexpectedly, technical challenges due to its large spatial and temporal scale. Thus, I am very interested in exploring more efficient solutions in modeling landscapes on such scale, as well as testing new algorithms that are suitable to integrate efficiently the modeling of tectonic motion and erosion through surface processes without losing access to tools I wish to apply (e.g. channel steepness analysis, cooling age prediction). As a post-doc I would also be looking forward to meet established figures to survey the current status in the field, and receive input on potential new research opportunities. The workshop would also provide a chance for potential future collaborations and ideas on joint funding proposals in my first step as a more independent researcher striving for a faculty position in the near future.for a faculty position in the near future. +
