This research thread translates climate hazards into tangible risks for people, infrastructure, and ecosystems. I quantify how heat, flooding, and air-quality extremes interact with demographic and energy data to expose inequities in health outcomes, utility reliability, and mobility. By merging Earth observations with socio-economic datasets, the work diagnoses where adaptation resources will have the greatest benefit.
Recent studies examine how climate-driven power demand challenges grid reliability, how extreme heat compounds public health burdens, and how collaborative data campaigns can surface community priorities. The goal is to provide defensible evidence for climate action plans, zoning reforms, and investment in nature-based and technological solutions.
