Research
With a background from seismology and seismic hazard studies, my research interests cover geohazards in a broad sense, including also e.g. tsunami hazards and earthquake-induced landslides.
Current research activities include studies of:
- Arctic seismicity and geohazards
- Tsunami hazard and risk assessment
- The effect of CO2 injection and storage on seismic hazard and risk
- Earthquake-induced landslides in intraplate areas
- Historical earthquakes

Teaching
Current teaching
I am a dedicated teacher, striving to spark motivation and engagement in my students. I am convinced that motivated and engaged students, exposed to student-active learning, are the best learners.
I lead the development of a national course on geohazards which is taught at the Universities of Bergen, Oslo and Tromsø since 2020. At UiB the course is taught under the course code: GEOV217 - Geohazards. The course builds on a course I launched at UiB in 2016, and has been developed in cooperation with more than 20 geohazards experts from around Norway.
Teaching-related awards and prices:
- In 2021 I was awarded status as Excellent Teaching Practitioner (ETP) at University of Bergen
- In 2017 I was awarded the teaching environment price (læringsmiljøprisen) at University of Bergen for my work on the course GEOV217 - Geohazards.
