Jasper Baur

Hello! My name is Jasper and I am pursing a PhD at LDEO at Columbia University in physical volcanology. I am an earth scientist by trade, and I love all aspects of the natural world from studying it, to hiking, traveling, climbing, and exploring all of the breath taking sights to be seen. I am passionate about protecting the environment, and researching ways to detect landmines to combat the atrocities caused by the international landmine crisis. This passion has lead me to found the Demining Research Community,  whose mission is to "research, develop, and field test cutting edge sensors and platforms to improve current demining technologies" and apply these findings to help aid post conflict nations. In my free time I enjoy  listening to music, painting, drawing, and illustration and being active whether that be soccer, rock climbing, or hiking.
