About GFL
We are an independent geo-scientific research, consultancy and popular science company with established offices and permanently instrumented geomorphologic observation and monitoring field test sites in Norway (Trondheim - Selbu) and Spain (Alicante - Calpe). Our core competence is in the areas of contemporary geomorphologic earth surface processes, sedimentary source-to-sink fluxes and correlations, soil erosion, hazardous earth surface processes, and landscape development and understanding under ongoing or accelerated climate change and increasing anthropogenic impacts and pressures. In addition to our research activities we offer a range of professional services related to scientific research projects, training, consultancy, scientific and popular scientific publishing/outreach and nature- and detail photography.
