Michaela Falkenroth was drawn to the desert since her Master’s thesis, in which she dealt with coastal sedimentology on the coastline of Oman. Starting in 2018, she was a PhD student at the Institute of Neotectonics and Geohazards at RWTH Aachen, where she studied the role of beach rocks in sea level reconstructions. She was passionate about creative writing, octopuses, and last interglacial shorelines.
