Our lab is dedicated to studying coastal risks and the evolution of coastlines in northern and Arctic environments. We conduct fundamental and participative research in coastal morphodynamics across the Arctic using an interdisciplinary and holistic approach that integrates terrestrial, glacier and oceanic environments with coastal dynamics. Our work is done in collaboration with northern communities based on their research priorities to support adaptation to climate change.
