Understanding droughts in a changing climate

My work examines European drought predictability, atmospheric circulation regimes, and how they evolve in a changing climate.

  • Predictability

    I study the conditions that make droughts more or less predictable.

  • Atmospheric circulation

    Large-scale atmospheric patterns play a central role in precipitation deficits.

  • Changing climate

    These mechanisms are studied in the context of climate change.

Research

I study how large-scale atmospheric patterns shape precipitation deficits and how this relationship may change with climate change.
