My engineer education acquired in France confers me a broad spectrum of scientific knowledge and my research interests are mainly transdisciplinary. I am currently interested in droughts impacts on society in a changing climate, looking at the impacts of droughts on nutrition supply at a global scale. My domain of competence englobes:
Drought Monitoring and Prediction
- Monitoring and prediction of meteorological, hydrological, and anthropogenic droughts
- Analysis of spatiotemporal patterns
- Duration, severity, and frequency of droughts
- Probabilistic forecasts using Copulas
Drought impact assessment
- Crop yield prediction using Machine Learning and Remote Sensing data
- Econometric modelling
- Food security analysis
Data visualization
- US Billion dollar Weather and Climate Disasters
- Global disasters 1989-2019
- Heat Wave Statistics (under progress)
- Virtual Reality Visualization of Coastal Flooding (under progress)
Hydrologic Modeling
- Lump and distributed modeling
- Model calibration and validation
- Using Unit Hydrograph (Link to peer-reviewed workshop)
Statistical Hydrology
- Extreme event analysis (Link to peer-reviewed workshop)
- Uncertainty analysis
- Ensemble simulations
Flood risk assessment
- ArgGIS based analsys (with HEC-RAS) of flood impact
- Very high resolution dataset using LiDar data for flood zone delineation
- Compound effects of water level and water flow using copulas for return periods
Water quality modeling
- Surface water and groundwater modeling
- Water quality modeling
- Wastewater treatment plant design
