My research aims to better understand the links between tectonic loading, the seismic cycle of faults, landscape formation and the movement of large tectonic plates.
I seek to acquire quantitative data on tectonic displacement by identifying from the morphotectonics morphological markers deformed by the faults and dating them from the cosmonuclides, in particular the 36Cl. I have developed original methods to constrain the size and age of the cumulative slip over the last 1-300 ka. 36Cl for the study of surface processes and theimpact of chlorine 36Anthropogenic Cl on the environment by developing the extraction of 36Cl from rainwater, soil and plants.
