About
Dr. Abhishek Kashyap is a Postdoctoral Researcher at CEREGE–CNRS/AMU, working on quantitative geomorphology and Earth‑surface processes. He holds a PhD in Quantitative Geomorphology from the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, India, where his research focused on landscape transience in the Himalayan Syntaxial region. His doctoral work examined drainage reorganization, extreme‑event–driven geomorphic responses, and numerical modeling of landscape evolution in high‑relief mountain systems.
His broader expertise spans process geomorphology, surface processes, landscape evolution, and extreme hydrological event impacts. He integrates field observations, remote sensing, thermochronology, topographic analysis, and process‑based modeling to understand how climatic and tectonic forcings shape mountain landscapes over varying timescales.
