Dissertation Topic: Extreme water levels and coastal change
Research Statement: I am an oceanographer and coastal scientist interested in assessing coastal hazards in a changing climate. My main interests include extreme water levels, and how individual meteorological and oceanographic processes combine to cause extreme events. My research aims to investigate how climate change can affect coastal processes, how coastlines are changing, and the role of urbanization and human influence on dynamic coastal systems.
