Daniel Thomas

Daniel Thomas is a PhD candidate and Lecturer at the University of Bergen, Department of Earth Science. He focuses on glacier-rock glacier complexes in the semi-arid Andes, integrating remote sensing, deep learning, and field techniques.

• Research Groups: Quaternary Geology and Paleoclimate
• Teaching: Lecturer and data lab leader in GIS (GEO215/GEOV205)

His PhD project aims to standardize glacier-rock glacier inventories, investigate spatial variability in transitions, and analyze geomorphological processes. Methods include drone surveys, photogrammetry, and clast sampling. Research outcomes include large-scale landform inventories and high-resolution transition assessments.

His work bridges glaciology with advanced computational techniques, contributing to climate change understanding through remote sensing and geospatial data analysis.
