Assistant Professor Water & Climate Information ServicesFollow me:
I am a hydro-climatologist working in the field of Water & Climate Information Services (WCIS) for society and co-developing research-based, tailor-made information services with and for end-users. The main question that drives me, is:
“How can we harness the potential of hydroclimatic information and knowledge sharing platforms and combine them with local knowledge from societal actors to deliver actinable knowledge to support adaptive decision-making?”
To answer that question, I am working towards combining data-driven and user-driven approaches for tailored water and climate information services by:
(1) further understanding of the integration of local knowledge in the provision of hydroclimatic information;
(2) understanding the role of co-production and co-creation within the design and delivery of the WCIS as well as the role of capacity building within those processes;
(3) Develop data-based information services;
(4) understanding the mechanisms that provide actionable knowledge to support adaptive decision-making.
In a nutshell, I am coordinating the 4-year HORIZON-RIA SAFE4ALL (https://www.safe4allafrica.eu/), and participating in the MSCA-Staff Exchange ClearClimate (https://clear-climate.com/) and Path4Med as a Work Package leader.
I am involved as a Work Package leader in the NWO Dutch-India collaborative LODESTAR project together with colleagues from the SSG-WUR.
I am also involved in several C3S contracts related with Water, Agriculture, as well as Enhancing User Intelligence of the C3S services.
