My research focuses on weather and climate, including predicting high-impact events over timescales ranging from hours to decades, particularly on storms, rainfall, humid heat, and dust.
I also collaborate with early warning systems, national meteorological agencies, and climate adaptation initiatives to ensure that these predictions are effectively utilised.
