Extreme events yesterday, today, and tomorrow

Hi! I am a doctoral researcher at the University of Oxford. My work is in collaboration with the UK Met Office and focuses on extreme event attribution. My research uses medium-range weather forecasts and seasonal weather predictions to assess changes in extreme weather events, especially mid-latitude storms, using the storyline approach of event attribution.

I am affiliated with the NERC DTP in Environmental Research and St. Cross College and receive their scholarship for a DPhil in Environmental Research.
