Biography

Todd A. Ehlers (Todd Ehlers CV) is a Professor and Head of School at the University of Glasgow, UK. Before this, he was a Professor and former Department Speaker at the University of Tübingen, Germany, and an Associate Professor and Associate Chair at the University of Michigan, USA. He is an elected member of Academia Europaea (2018), recipient of the EGU Ralph Alger Bagnold Medal (2018), and former Moore Distinguished Scholar at the California Institute of Technology, Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences (2021-2022). While in Germany, Professor Ehlers was the speaker for the German priority research program (SPP 1801) EarthShape: Earth Surface Shaping by Biota (2016-2024), and a former European Research Council (ERC) Consolidator Awardee. He has served on numerous USA and German Science Foundation (NSF, DFG) Senate Commissions for the future of Geo- and Earth System Sciences, as well as science review panels for USA National Science Foundation, and DFG. Professor Ehlers is on the Board of Review Editors for Science (2013-present), and former editor in chief for Tectonics (2009-2013), and Earth Science Reviews (2006-2010).

 

Research interests

Prof. Ehlers' research interests are in the interactions between climate, tectonics, surface processes, and biota as applied to the evolution of active mountain ranges and sedimentary basins. His research group has a wide range of projects that involve an integration of field observations and geochemical data with physics-based models of landscape evolution, lithospheric deformation, and climate/paleoclimate. The goal of these projects is to quantify the rates of magnitudes of processes that influence the form and evolution of Earth's surface. Emphasis is also placed on understanding any couplings and feedbacks between biotic, geologic, atmospheric, and geomorphic processes.

Current research topics include:

  • Tectonic, (paleo)climate, and biotic controls on Earth surface processes
  • Active tectonics and geodynamics
  • Quantifying tectonic and surface processes using thermochronology, cosmogenic nuclides, remote sensing, and numerical modeling techniques.
  • Glacial erosion and topographic development.

Techniques/tools used:

Professor Ehlers integrates a variety of tools in his research. He emphasizes a multidisciplinary approach to solving problems and integrates techniques and data sets such as:

  • Field observations
  • Numerical modeling (thermal, mechanical, atmospheric, and surface process models) and high performance computing.
  • Low-temperature thermochronology: noble gas and fission track methods.
  • Analysis and modeling of high-resolution (Lidar derived) digital topography.
  • Field-based observations of sedimentology, stratigraphy, geomorphology, and structure.
  • Meso-and global-scale climate models and meteorological data
  •  Remote sensing and geographic information systems(GIS)
  • Cosmogenic isotopes (10Be,26Al,3He) and shortlived nuclides.
  • Geophysical data analysis (heatflow, gravity, GPR, seismic reflection profiles)
