My research aims to advance interdisciplinary technologies and decision-support frameworks for Environmental Risk Management by developing resilient, sustainable, and equitable socio-ecological systems. It is grounded in the SDGs, focusing on the following areas:
• Hazard, Risk & Vulnerability
• Hydrology, Stormwater, Hydro-climatology
• Smart Cities and Resilient Urban Planning
• Ecosystem service, water quality, and environmental health
• AI-driven predictive Analytics for Climate Resilience
I have established a notable research record, boasting publications in Q1 (first quartile) ranked journals known for their international impact and significance.
