The escalating frequency and severity of hydroclimatic extremes—ranging from severe heatwaves and prolonged droughts to energetically extreme fires—pose a profound challenge to global socio-ecological stability. Elucidating the spatiotemporal dynamics, underlying physical mechanisms, and cascading impacts of these compound events is a fundamental scientific prerequisite for bolstering climate resilience and informing robust disaster risk reduction strategies. Situated at the forefront of Earth system science, my research investigates the physical drivers, spatiotemporal evolution, and pervasive socio-ecological consequences of multi-scale climate and fire weather extremes.

Guided by these overarching objectives, my research portfolio is systematically structured around three intricately linked domains: climate, data, and wildfire.
