SCIENTIFIC INTERESTS

Main Interests:

My PhD work programme is entitled “FUTURE SHORE: from shoreline satellite-derived mapping to its evolutionary modelling” and aims to create a new tool that integrates enhanced satellite-derived shoreline mapping, and state-of-the-art modelling solutions to predict future shorelines.
