Current Research听
My research interests fall at the intersection of climate change, political geography, and remote sensing. For my dissertation, I plan to employ a mixed method approach to explore how cyclones impact rural livelihoods in Mozambique through facilitating land use change, climate adaptation behaviors, and conflict and cooperation over agricultural resources.
