Nicolas Loget

Geologist, expertise in Basin analysis/quantitative geomorphology
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Basin analysis :
-Sequential stratigraphy (basin and incised valleys)
-Mass balance (erosion/sedimentation)
-Tectonic and sismotectonic analysis


Quantitative geomorphology :
-Dynamics of river processes
-Incision of rivers linked to base-level fall (quaternary, messinian)
-Comparison earth drainage network/mars drainage network
