Current Research
I am a geographer and cartographer who uses GIS and cartographic techniques to estimate and map renewable energies resources. I am especially interested in estimating the proportion of forest aboveground biomass that can sustainably be harvested for energy purposes in temperate climates at regional and national scale. Since my PhD, I collaborated on different research projects involving energy, natural resources, urban planning, mobility, land use, agriculture, epidemiology etc.
