Mes recherches ont pour principal objectif de mieux comprendre les interactions complexes entre tectonique, climat et processus de surface (dénudation/sédimentation). Mon approche est pluri-disciplinaire (magnétostratigrpahie, nucléides cosmogéniques, tectonique…) et a pour but d’établir des bilans dynamiques et quantitatifs intégrant l’ensemble des facteurs mis en jeu. Il est en particulier fondamental d’améliorer notre compréhension des mécanismes contrôlant la dénudation continentale, non seulement parce que via son action sur l’isostasie elle peut entretenir des rétroactions fortes avec la tectonique mais aussi parce que ce paramètre est l’un des forçages impliqué dans la régulation du climat sur des échelles de temps de 105 à 106 années. En particulier, la nature et l’ampleur des interactions entre dénudation et climat lors de l’installation des glaciations Quaternaire restent controversées et empêche une bonne compréhension de la dynamique de le Terre à cette période. Une partie importante des mes travaux de recherches visent donc à quantifier les taux de dénudation au cours du Quaternaire.
