My core research is in Land Surface Science, which encompasses the interconnected aspects of Terrestrial Hydrology, Biogeochemical cycles and Land Surface Exchange. Within this remit, I have a special focus on extreme climatic events in the Earth System: particularly large-scale droughts and floods, which account for the greatest loss of life and property in the contemporary world. My aim is to achieve a deeper understanding of land surface processes within these contexts
Through my projects (see menu, top) I am involved with the theory and development of land surface simulator models (LSMs), drawing on my previous fieldwork experience in South Africa, Panama, India, Peru and Malaysia. Current projects at UKCEH involve the development of the hydrological simulation routines in the Joint UK Land Environment Simulator (JULES) and producing predictions relevant to the assessment of global hydro-climate risks, validated against remote-sensing data.
