Biography
Clara received a BA in Geosciences from Trinity College Dublin in 2022 and briefly worked as a geologist in Canada for Equity Exploration. Now she is pursuing a Ph.D. in applied geosciences at UCD under the supervision of Sam Kelley. Constraining the properties and behaviors of past ice sheets provides crucial information for the numerical modelling of ice sheets and sea level rise. Glacial landforms can be used to infer past ice sheet behavior and conditions, as well as provide information on thickness, flow direction and velocity. This project uses glacial land forms to investigate landscape evolution to refine Ireland's glacial history and improve mineral exploration techniques.
