Marie-Françoise André
Born(1953-11-21)November 21, 1953
OccupationGeographer

Marie-Françoise André, born 21 November 1953 in Paris, is a French geographer and geomorphologist specialising in the study of landscape architecture in the polar regions ( Labrador, Spitsbergen, Lapland, Antarctica). She applies her knowledge of stone erosion in the field of heritage preservation, particularly in Angkor. Her research was awarded the silver medal from CNRS, the French national centre for scientific research.

Biography

A teacher-researcher in geomorphology, she was a member of CNRS's URA 1562 team in Clermont-Ferrand in 1993 and joined the Physical and Environmental Geography Laboratory (GEOLAB) in the same year, when it was created. [1] She was director of GEOLAB for nine years (1998-2007). [1]

She lectured at the University of Limoges in 1994 and from 1997-2016 was a professor of geography at Blaise Pascal University. [2] On 1 January 2017, the Blaise Pascal University became part of the University Clermont Auvergne, where she continued to teach and is currently a Professor Emeritus. [2] She is a member of the Académie des sciences d'outre-mer [3] (Academy of Overseas Sciences) and was a senior member of the Institut universitaire de France (IUF, Academic Institute of France) from 2010–2015. [4]

Works

After a 3rd cycle thesis (fr: DEA) on the geomorphological evolution of Northern Labrador, her state doctoral thesis, defended in 1991, focused on the dynamics and evolution of the slopes in Spitsbergen. [5] She studies landscape changes over time and the influence of climatic variations in Swedish Lapland and the Antarctic Peninsula. [2] She also publishes epistemological work on geomorphology [6] and French research on the poles. [7]

Since the 2000s, Marie-Françoise André has focused her work on the speed of stone erosion in historic monuments. [8] As part of the multidisciplinary Ta Keo project in Angkor, using photogrammetry and geomatics, her team managed to show the protective role of the forest [9] and therefore link the acceleration of the temples' degradation to recent deforestation. [10] This work on the causes and rates of degradation of the epidermis of monuments, as well as the link between geomorphology and heritage, [11] was awarded a silver medal from the CNRS. [12] She continues her research in the French Massif Central, [13] in Southern America's Guyana [14] and in the Mediterranean islands of Malta and Cyprus.

Currently a Professor Emeritus, she has directed around 20 theses, published around 60 articles and written several general works on polar landscapes. [15]
