Why Is Matti Seppälä Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Matti Kullervo Seppälä was a Finnish geomorphologist specialized in cold climate aeolian processes. Seppälä obtained a Ph.D. at the University of Turku in 1971 and moved after to work at the University of Oulu. In 1978 he moved to the University of Helsinki and served as professor of physical geography from 1978 to 2009
