Emma Cooper


With gratitude, SAEF recognises Emma Cooper’s contributions and proudly acknowledges them among our valued alumni.

Dr Emma Cooper has primarily been trained as a (palaeo)glaciologist, with research interests that span the broad-scale interactions between ice sheets, glaciers, and climate across a range of timescales. Emma recently finished her PhD at Royal Holloway as part of the London NERC Doctoral Training Partnership in the UK. Her PhD focused on understanding the climatic and non-climatic drivers of Patagonian Ice Sheet retreat using a combination of glacial geomorphology, sedimentology, drone surveys, and terrestrial cosmogenic nuclides. As part of SAEF, Emma is currently working on combining geological and biological evidence to improve our understanding of Antarctic Ice Sheet histories.
