Postdoctoral scholar: Climate mitigation and adaptation solutions
Climate Solutions to Water, Energy, Food Systems
Addressing the most urgent questions surrounding the sustainability of the Earth System
We study climate change mitigation and adaptation solutions to food, energy, and water systems. Our work aims to understand and find ways to address the challenge of meeting global demand for water, energy and food while averting environmental impacts. We are researching sustainable irrigation and fertilizer strategies in order to maximize agricultural output and feed the growing population without exacerbating the global climate crisis.
​
Key research questions are:​
-
How can we provide sustainable access to food and water?
-
How does climate change impact water scarcity in agriculture?
-
How does climate change affect agricultural assets, and what risks does it pose?
-
How to adapt agriculture to climate change? How to mitigate its impacts?
