Dr. Erica Erlanger

Function and Responsibilities:
Swiss National Science Foundation (SNF) Postdoctoral FellowResearch Interests:
I am interested in understanding the spatial and temporal patterns of Earth surface processes in orogenic landscapes. I use field-based observations, laboratory analyses, and a variety of geochronology tools (cosmogenic nuclides, water chemistry, low-temperature thermochronology) to understand the links between denudation processes and landscape evolution, orogen kinematics, and the carbon cycle. Please visit my website for more information on current and past projects. ederlanger.wixsite.com/geology
