Research Interests:
During my master's degree, I focused on the formation and processes of extreme weather events. In the meantime, I gained experience in the hail event. In my master thesis, I simulated a hail event using the atmosphere model and analyzed the model output and the observation data to investigate the hail event. I am interested in the climatic processes, atmosphere-ocean interaction, geophysical fluids dynamics and global earth system modeling.
In addition, within courses which I took when during my Ph.D., I took part in some individual and collective studies about mathematical processes and parameterization of convective movements, hydrological modeling and its calibration.
