Stefanie Müller

PROFILE	CONTACT INFORMATION
Stefanie Müller recently became a Specially Appointed Assistant Professor in the Center of Ainu & Indigenous studies at Hokkaido University. Stefanie was previously a Post Doctoral Fellow at University of Potsdam in the Institute of Earth and Environmental Science (in collaboration with FU Berlin in Geological Science, Palaeontology) within the project "Pleistocene lakes in southern Israel and Jordan: the environmental conditions of the first step out of Africa." (PI Prof. Steffen Mischke) Her research interests include the generation of objective (quantitative) and high-resolution environmental reconstructions of vegetation and climate - its mechanisms and driving forces - and validating regional proxy- and model-based climatic scenarios based on pollen, non-pollen-palynomorph, and testate amoebae analyses. And evaluation of the role of environmental factors (i.e. climate, vegetation, sea level changes, tsunami and volcanic activities) in local and regional human cultural change and population dynamics. Regions of interest: Russia (Siberia, Far East), Japan, Kazakhstan, Levant.
