She is specialized in extreme weather phenomena, climate & health impact, USA climate and adaptation to climate change with nature solutions.

She is also a writer “Climate & Earth expert” for the science website Futura. In the media world, Karine is well-known for her teaching skills, smile and passion. She loves to explain weather and environmental subjects in a simple way that everybody can understand.
In June 2021, she was chosen to host the international roundtable “Communicating climate change in the media”, co-organized by International Weather and Climate Forum, EUMETSAT, World Meteorological Organization and European Space Agency. 1500 climate experts and weather presenters from 90 different countries watched the online event.
Karine is not only a “studio woman”, she is an “outdoor woman” : she is an adventurer in North America for the last 14 years. She has a passion for wilderness and for extreme weather and she has traveled to the USA and Canada more than 20 times to study ranching, climate and biodiversity mostly in the Glacier county of Montana and in the desert of Arizona. She stayed several summers, winters and falls in an ecological and traditional cattle ranch in Montana, to help the cowboys with cattle drive and learn about rangeland management in one of the most extreme landscape of the country. These stays in unspoiled nature, sharing life with locals, farmers & ranchers, truly made who she is now as a human and as a environmental communication expert. After each stay, she loves to share her experiences and knowledge on TV, her YouTube channel, articles and conferences.
