Professor, Purdue University, Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary Sciences
I do use-inspired fundamental and applied research on extreme weather in a warming world. My lab's research over the past 10+ years has advanced the understanding and modeling of extreme weather, particularly hurricanes, tornadoes, and severe thunderstorms, and their hazards and societal impacts.
