Emilie Gauthier

Prof. Emilie Gauthier is a faculty member at the University of Bourgogne Franche-Comté, affiliated with the Laboratoire de Chrono-Environnement (UMR CNRS 6249). Her research spans interdisciplinary fields including Climate Change, Palynology, Environmental Archaeology, and Human Impact on Environment, with a focus on mountainous and Arctic regions.

Her recent publications highlight work on Holocene vegetation dynamics using the REVEALS model, Norse settlement impacts in Greenlandic fjords, Middle Holocene climate oscillations in Eastern Europe, and non-pollen palynomorphs as indicators of anthropogenic activity. She collaborates with over 280 co-authors across institutions like CNRS and Earth Systems Science research groups.

Research keywords include Climate Change, Palynology, Environmental Archaeology, and Human Impact on Environment. She leads studies integrating geological, archaeological, and climatological data to understand historical environmental shifts.

The Laboratoire de Chrono-Environnement (UMR CNRS 6249) serves as her primary research hub, with projects spanning the Neolithic period to modern Arctic ecosystems. Her work bridges gaps between Earth Systems Science, paleolimnology, and human-environment interactions.
