        Research Interests<\/h1>\n

        I am an environmental modeler specializing in drought analysis, hydrological modeling, ecosystem and niche modeling, and environmental flow assessments. My work integrates mathematical modeling, GIS, and remote sensing to simulate and predict complex environmental processes. I am particularly interested in using models to explore scenarios that are not directly observable supporting data informed decisions for biodiversity conservation, climate resilience, and sustainable natural resource management. By translating available data into actionable insights, my research contributes to future focused conservation planning under changing climate conditions and broader sustainability goals.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
