About

I’m a climate scientist, interested in water on land and the interactions between freshwater, human management and climate change. In my research, I employ modelling techniques, ranging from the Community Earth System Model, the land model Community Terrestrial Systems Model, the river-routing model mizuRoute to impact models from the ISIMIP project.

I obtained my PhD at the Department of Hydrology and Hydraulic Engineering, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, funded by a personal PhD fellowship from the Research Foundation Flanders (FWO), in which I investigated the role of reservoirs in a changing climate.

You can find the PhD thesis here.
