Neukom Scholar

• Sep 2020 - Mar 2021

This project centers on analyzing how climate change will impact freshwater availability in the future. I look to determine whether the difference between precipitation and evapotranspiration is equal to run-off. To do this, I am analyzing climate model simulations and their response to changes in atmospheric CO2 concentrations in an effort to assess the effect that changes in moisture have on future drought-risks in North America. I use the data collected by model experiments from phase 6 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6), the latest phase of a collaborative framework that works to improve climate models and their assessment of climate change. With these model experiments, I will then perform a model-by-model analysis using Python to determine how to simulate seasonal-scale droughts for selected North American drought events. Show less

Research Assistant

• May 2020 - Oct 2022

I am working as a remote research assistant for the Centro Mexicano de Innovacion en Energia Oceano (CEMIE-Oceano), a research center at the Instituto de Ingenieria de la UNAM that focuses on the benefits of ocean energy. As a research assistant, I am analyzing research articles, collecting data relating to sand in beaches of volcanic origin, and using QGIS to map the data collected. My role also includes analyzing methods to attain higher efficiency and provide suggestions for improvement of current forms of ocean and solar energy. Simultaneously, I am also working on a project that focuses on the formation and structure of hurricanes. I am collecting data from atmospheric and ocean models that analyzes the physics of hurricanes and understand the relationship between the atmosphere and the ocean during a hurricane. Show less

Undergraduate Research Fellow

• Jun 2020 - Sep 2020

As an Undergraduate Research Fellow, I conducted a numerical analysis in an effort to formulate an understanding of the areas where Moffatt eddies may exist. This project required the application of fundamental theories of physics and fluid dynamics, as well as a basic comprehension of glaciology. Our aim was to mathematically determine how glaciers move and behave under different climate scenarios, in order to better predict future glacier behavior. To do so, I formulated a mathematical model based off certain characteristics of glaciers, such as formation of Moffatt eddies in sub-glacial mountain valley regions. Show less

Junior Research Scholar

• Jan 2020 - Jun 2020

Recipient of the Junior Research Scholarship by the Undergraduate Academic Research Office, I am working in the Geography Department alongside PhD students, Postdoctorates, and undergraduates of Dartmouth's Climate Modeling and Impacts Group (CMIG) . The aim of the project is to better understand the physics of climate models and scientific computing in Linux using languages such as Python. In addition, I research and assess current climate models and providing a model to determine projected vegetation responses to climate change and the impact that projection will have on freshwater availability.
