Research Subject(s)
My research focuses on the interactions between water systems, climate, and society, with an emphasis on understanding environmental changes and assessing risks and vulnerabilities associated with natural hazards. I employ interdisciplinary approaches and quantitative methods to investigate water resources management, climate change impacts, hydrological, and disaster risk reduction. My work aims to advance scientific understanding of environmental dynamics and support sustainable water management, climate resilience, and disaster risk reduction through data-driven analysis and interdisciplinary collaboration.

Research Activities

My research investigates the impacts of climate change and environmental variability on water systems and natural hazards, including drought and floods. I aim to improve the understanding of hydrological and environmental processes and their implications for human and natural systems.

I develop data-driven approaches to assess disaster risks and vulnerabilities using climate data, remote sensing, geospatial analysis, and statistical modeling. My work focuses on identifying spatial and temporal patterns of hazards and understanding how environmental conditions and socioeconomic factors influence vulnerability.

My research aims to support evidence-based disaster risk reduction, climate adaptation, and sustainable water resources management. I am interested in translating scientific findings into practical insights that strengthen community resilience and support sustainable development, particularly in regions vulnerable to climate-related hazards.
