Research

My research focuses on developing and applying statistical calibration techniques to answer interesting science questions like...

What are probable future scenarios of sea-level rise?
... and what should we do about it?
How can we use limited information to constrain ecosystem hydrological partitioning?
... and how can we quantify this information?
