I am a PhD student in Physical Geography with the specialization in GIS and Remote Sensing. In my PhD project, I focus on optical, multi-temporal and multiscale remote sensing of environmental changes in Arctic and Subarctic areas. My scientific interests are generally in geomorphology, permafrost-landscape dynamics and remote sensing of the Cryosphere.
