I am currently a Harry H. Hess Fellow at t … I am currently a Harry H. Hess Fellow at the Department of Geosciences at Princeton University. I would be extremely interested in attending this workshop for that it would allow me to connect with a diverse group of potential future collaborators, with a unique shared interest of coupling of Earth surface processes to tectonic forcing. </br></br>I have previously studied a diverse range of geomorphological and geological phenomena using experimental, numerical and theoretical techniques combined with field observations. In my research, I look for universal laws of transport, erosion, and deformation applicable to Earth surface and subsurface processes, and seek a fundamental understanding of geomorphological an geological processes, from asperity and grain rearrangements to geological (fault and basin lengthscale, up to million year timescale) spatiotemporal scales, with knowledge of the behavior of disordered amorphous Earth materials. </br></br>In the past year, I worked on developing a unifying mechanistic framework for sediment transport and landscape evolution from slow earthflows to fast landslides, across the scales and environments. In continuation of this work, I intend to next focus on tectonically active regions, taking into account tectonic evolution, deformation of continental crust and uplift rates and tectonic patterns</br>for future landscape evolution models. This step would require i) developing a rigorous physical understanding of how these processes (landsliding, mass wasting and tectonic forcings including uplift) interact and result in recurrence time and size distributions of earth surface slips; ii) finding and testing the functional form(s) of the transition to landsliding in steep hillslopes, and physics of healing that is perhaps a controlling factor of landslide recurrence times. </br></br>I will use the great opportunity of this workshop to discuss and learn about these ideas and hopefully find potential collaborators with whom I can can work on them.borators with whom I can can work on them.
