Research interests
Marc’s research will focus on improving our current understanding of hydrometeorological and hydrological regimes in the Himalayas, at the catchment and local scales, for the present-day climate. Marc will use a hybrid approach, leveraging probabilistic machine learning models in combination with state-of-the-art techniques, and using data from multiple sources (observations, climate models, satellite products, etc.). Marc is particularly interested in uncertainty quantification and how this translates into actionable information for vulnerability-impact-adaptation (VIA) studies and better decision making.
