معرفی
Dr. Danni Pearce is an Associate Professor at the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU), affiliated with the Soil and Water Science Section. She specializes in glacial and Quaternary geology, focusing on ice dynamics in Arctic and North Atlantic regions. Prior to NMBU, she held roles including Senior Lecturer in Physical Geography and Head of the Academic Support Unit at the University of Hertfordshire, and Post-Doctoral Researcher at the University of Aberdeen. Her research investigates ice sheet behavior, abrupt climate change impacts, and glacial geomorphology in regions like Greenland, Svalbard, and the Kola Peninsula.
Education: PhD in glaciology (topic: Younger Dryas plateau icefield glaciation), followed by postdoctoral work on Greenland Ice Sheet dynamics. Her academic journey emphasizes field-based studies and interdisciplinary approaches to glacial systems.
Research interests span plateu icefields, tidewater glacier surging, paleoclimatic reconstruction, and Arctic landsystems. She employs advanced techniques like drone mapping, seismic analysis, and satellite imagery to study glacier dynamics and environmental changes.
Publications highlight trends in Arctic glacial retreat, surge mechanics, and glacial-geomorphological interactions. Her work bridges Quaternary science with modern climate change impacts, particularly in high-latitude regions.
As a Quaternary geologist, she contributes to understanding past climate-glacier interactions to inform future projections. Grants and collaborations likely underpin her fieldwork-intensive projects, though specific funding details are not provided here.
