Dr. Mylène Jacquemart

Research area

I am a physical geographer and remote sensing specialist with interests in understanding how climate change is altering the disposition, magnitude and frequency of natural hazards in alpine and polar regions. My research interests include:

• Alpine mass movements: deep-seated instabilities, rock-ice avalanches, debris-flows
• Glacier instabilities: ice avalanches, glacier surges, sudden detachments of low-angle valley glaciers
• Effect of glacier debutressing on potentially tsunamigenic landslides in coastal regions
• Role of remote sensing – in particular InSAR – in operational hazard management
• Early warning and alarm systems
• Knowledge co-production and co-design in natural hazard research and management
