Victor KLABA

Victor KLABA is a PhD student in hydrogeology at the Université de Franche-Comté, affiliated with the Chrono-environnement laboratory (UMR 6249 CNRS/UFC). His research focuses on structural geology and karst systems, with a particular emphasis on hydrogeological processes and environmental interactions. Supervised by Hélène Celle and Flavien Choulet, his work combines field studies, modeling, and microbiological analyses to address challenges in karst hydrology and water resource management.

Research interests include karst biodiversity, multi-scale hydrostructural analysis, and the impact of global change on water systems. His expertise spans structural geology, microbiological assessments of karst waters, and groundwater modeling using tools like MODFLOW.

• Publications (2024): Explored yeast biodiversity in karst waters and applied multi-scale approaches to the Arcier hydrosystem.
• Publications (2023): Analyzed ESBL-producing E. coli in karst systems and modeled alluvial aquifers under global change scenarios.

Labs/Teams: Chrono-environnement (UMR 6249) and the Transkarst project team.
