Profile

During my research, I will investigate the surface dynamics on beaches using LiDAR. As part of the AdaptCoast project, I will develop methods to extract and characterize surface dynamics from time series of LiDAR point clouds, obtained using permanent and airborne scanners. Additionally, I will research methods to predict topography changes based on previous beach states as well as external forcings, here a large focus will lie on how human influences impact subsequent beach states. This research will hopefully lead to a better understanding of the causal relations between natural and human forcing and beach topography on short time scales.
