About the research
Katleen Wils (UGent - FWO) is a geologist researching earthquakes, yet you'll mostly see her bobbing in lakes on a boat. "What on earth do lakes have to do with earthquakes?", we hear you think. "Well, thanks to lakes we can look back in time, up to thousands of years ago," Katleen explains. This is how Katleen finds traces of ancient earthquakes at the bottom of lakes. What we can learn from this for the future, she tells you in this video.
