Thesis Description
Caroline Aubry-Wake's work focuses on understanding the processes driving streamflow generation in alpine glacierized catchments and how these processes will change under a future climate. To do so, she uses a combination of fieldwork, collecting meteorological and glaciological data in the mountains, and physically-based computer models.
Research Interests and Keywords
- Mountain hydrology
- Glacier
