Postdoctoral Researcher
Postdoctoral Researcher
T213 Built Environment
My main motivation is to contribute to a society that is more adapted to hydrometeorological extremes in a changing world.
I am passionate about the interactions of the hydrological cycle with socio-economic aspects, in particular the finding of good compromises between the different sectors involved in water resources.
