About
Reeta Vaahtera is a Doctoral Researcher at Aalto University's School of Engineering, affiliated with the Department of Built Environment and specializing in Water and Environmental Engineering. Her research focuses on river ice dynamics, remote sensing techniques for under-ice topography, and hydrodynamic processes in ice-covered rivers. She has contributed to flume experiments analyzing ice-river interactions and developed methodologies using Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) for sub-ice measurements.
Her recent work includes presentations at international conferences, with two key outputs in 2025 exploring flume experiments and ROV-based hydrographic techniques. While no formal awards or grants are explicitly listed, her publications reflect collaborative projects with experts like Johnson, Lotsari, and Välimäki. Her research aligns with Aalto's broader initiatives in environmental and hydraulic engineering.
