Dr. Alexis Licht – CNRS Research Scientist, CEREGE, University of Marseille – Aix en Provence, France

Alexis Licht is a sedimentary geologist and investigates the links between climate, tectonics, and ecosystems in the deep time (tens of million years). He uses sedimentological and geochemical proxies to study the past of paleoclimatic and tectonic history of sedimentary basins. His current studies in Myanmar focus on refining the stratigraphy of the Central Myanmar Basins, understanding the deep time evolution of the South Asian monsoon, and reconstructing the uplift of Southeast Asian mountain ranges. He also works in China, Turkey, and North America on related topics.
