Biography

Key words: climate change, tropical cyclones, sea-level rise, storm surge, coastal flooding 

My research has included studies investigating changing flood risk in New York City from the past millennium through 2300 CE due to tropical cyclones, storm surge, and sea-level rise, as well as projects related to the evolution of 21^st century global sea-level rise projections. Currently, I am continuing research related to the impacts of a changing climate on natural hazards, including the effects of sea-level rise on tsunamis, and evolving characteristics of tropical cyclones and storm surge in a changing climate. In addition to working on innovative research projects related to climate change, I am committed to bringing this important science to the public. I have spoken about my work to a wide range of audiences at a number of venues, ranging from the NJ March for Science 2018 to high school classrooms.
