Expertise : Climate/Weather Modeling and Forecasting, Climate/Weather Impact Analysis (flooding), Ecological Modeling, Environmental Economics, Environmental Statistics, Sea Level Rise, Social Sciences, Socioeconomic Modeling, Decision Analysis
Chesapeake Management Areas : Climate Resiliency
Research interests : My research addresses two interrelated questions. First, how can we mechanistically understand past and potentially predict future changes in the Earth system? Second, how can we use this information to design sustainable, scientifically sound, technologically feasible, economically efficient, and ethically defensible risk management strategies? I analyze these questions by mission-oriented basic research covering a wide range of disciplines such as Earth system science, economics, engineering, philosophy, decision science, and statistics.
