Welcome to the Hydroclimatology Group at the O’Neill School of Public and Environmental Affairs, Indiana University Bloomington.
We study how climate change is reshaping hydroclimatic extremes and water availability. Our work focuses on two connected questions: how hydroclimatic extremes such as drought, extreme precipitation, flooding, and climate whiplash evolve in a warming climate, and how those changes affect water availability, risk management, and climate adaptation.
We combine Earth system model output, process-based hydrologic models, hydrologic theory, spatiotemporal statistics, machine learning, GIS, and remote sensing. Across these approaches, our goal is to produce science that helps communities, institutions, and decision-makers better understand and manage water risks under climate change.
