natural Holocene polar climate variability is a key to determine the range of plausible future anthropogenic climate change. My Ph.D. project aims at improving our understanding of the climate signal and

Wegener Institut) Arctic permafrost landscapes change rapidly under the influence of natural and anthropogenic disturbances. My research focuses on the dynamics of disturbances, their landscape-scale impacts
