Research Interests:

  • Implementation of the viscoelastic solid-earth component (VILMA) in earth-system models (e.g., PalMod)
  • Derivation and optimization of interfaces between solid-earth, ocean and ice-sheet/shelf models
  • Analysis of impact by changes in sea-level, land/ocean mask and topography on earth-system dynamics at annual to millennial time scales
  • Model validation with geologic and geodetic observation data
  • Estimation of solid-earth dynamics (e.g., glacial isostatic adjustment, earthquakes) for satellite gravimetry (GRACE-FO) and climate applications
  • Numerical modeling of earthquake cycles and analysis of co- and postseismic stress changes and deformation fields
