About

Emeline defended her PhD thesis in October 2017 and she has first started her professional career as an engineer specialized in fluid mechanics before decided to go closer to scientific research. Her main research topics are river hydraulics, sediment transport and hydrometry. Her PhD thesis was about sediment transport and morphodynamics. It aimed to understand the transport of moderately sorted gravels at low bed shear stresses in alpine rivers, and specifically the impact of bed arrangement and of presence of fine infiltrated sediments (cohesive or not). The thesis was based on laboratory and field experiments. After that, she enrolled in a postdoc position at INRAE in France, working on hydrometry. She is now developing models to help better predict streamflow time series (and their uncertainties) at hydrometric stations either that are affected by the presence of aquatic vegetation, or that are located in tidal areas, or that are subject to hysteresis phenomena due to flood wave propagation.
