1 # Research 2 3 I am interested in understanding mechanical and hydrological processes 4 in the climate system, specifically processes that relate to mechanics 5 of granular materials, sea ice, and ice-sheet flow under past, 6 present, and future scenarios. Investigations of fundamental 7 granular mechanics are important in many geodynamical and 8 geomorphological processes and settings, such as earthquakes, 9 landslides, sediment transport in flowing water, and dam stability. 10 11 I have listed my publications and submitted manuscripts below. If 12 you would like to collaborate on a scientific problem please get 13 in touch. 14 15 16 ## Publications 17 18 L. L. Pedersen, K. Svennevig, C. Morino, A. S. Søndergaard, C. Pearce, L.F.
