The dissertation will involve several methodologies to determine the best climate change approach to use in given case studies, including adaptive management approaches, inverse climate change impacts, machine learning methods, adjusted flood frequency analysis methods, and soft computing methods. Specific focus will be on Climate Risk Informed Decision Analysis (CRIDA) using bottom-up climate approaches combined with vulnerability analyses
Specific experience I have in this field are being the technical lead in analyzing climate change and climate resilience on the on-going USACE re-evaluation of alternatives for water supply for the Panama Canal Operations. Additionally, was technical lead for evaluation for climate change impacts on the Missouri River Mainstem Reservoir System, the largest reservoir system in the U.S
