Irene Schimmelpfennig

I study the link between climate and glacier fluctuations from the last ice agewith a particular interest in the phases of glacial retreat during theHolocene. My main approach is to reconstruct glacial chronologies using the dating of glacio-geomorphological formations by cosmogenic nuclides products in situ.

I am also interested in technical and methodological development dating by cosmogenic nuclides produced in situs, in particular the chlorine-36 and the carbon-14 in situ. I am the scientific manager of the carbon-14 lab in situ which is unique in France.

My main collective responsibility is to lead the Green Cell who deals with the eco-responsibility aspects of CEREGE.
