My research focuses on building connections between climate sciences and impact study groups, aiming to assess climate impacts across regions and understand how different future climate scenarios — such as global warming, solar radiation modification, and nuclear conflict — affect the surface environment. In particular, I study the impacts of climate change on vegetation and agriculture, exploring the interactions between vegetation and the climate system.

I welcome inquiries from prospective graduate students, and from journalists covering climate intervention, nuclear winter, and food security — email me.
