Dr. Magaly Koch is a geologist specialized in the application of Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems in the study of groundwater resources and environmental change of arid lands. She has conducted research on the: (i) estimation of the ground water potential of the Red Sea Hills of eastern Sudan, (ii) evaluation of the geomorphic effects of the Gulf War in Kuwait using pre- and post-war satellite images, (iii) characterization of wetland degradation processes in Spain, and (v) assessment of flash flood potential of ephemeral rivers (wadis) in Egypt, Oman, and United Arab Emirates. In recent years she has been engaged in archaeological studies dealing with the use of remote sensing and GIS (i) to uncover hidden Maya ruins in the thick rainforest and to understand the environmental resources available to this ancient civilization; and (ii) to examine the relationship between landscape evolution and cultural development of the Axumite kingdom in N Ethiopia, and the possible causes for past and present-day land degradation problems in this region. Dr. Koch graduated from the University of Cologne, Germany, in 1986 with a MSc in Geology. Her PhD research, on the use of remote sensing in ground water studies, was undertaken at Boston University, USA, and completed in 1993. Subsequently she was awarded a Marie Curie Fellowship by the European Union to undertake post-doctoral research at the Earth Science Institute, CSIC, Barcelona, Spain. Her current post is that of Research Associate Professor at the Remote Sensing Center, Boston University, Boston, Massachusetts, USA. Areas of Interest: Geology, remote sensing and geographic information systems Languages: Spanish, German
