Quantifying the effect of anthropogenic climate change on wildfires and assessing the resulting impact of air pollution on urban populations

Hannah is a IoES Ph.D. student, most recently graduating from the University of San Francisco where Hannah focused on physics and environmental studies. Hannah is intrigued by the mechanisms that drive and generate wildfires in the Western US region. Using satellite and climate model data, Hannah is interested in quantifying the effect of anthropogenic climate change on wildfire smoke hazards and assessing the resulting impact of air pollution on urban populations.
