We are based in Prague, Czechia, at the Institute of Hydrogeology, Engineering Geology and Applied Geophysics of Charles University, Faculty of Science.
We are primarily interested in landslide process chains under climate change, of which we are currently exploring experimental, monitoring, and modelling aspects. We are fascinated by coupled and time-dependent phenomena in geomaterials: thermally-induced landsliding, chemo-mechanical coupling, shear creep evolution, slide-to-flow transition, and much more.
