Climate change and human intervention have altered the characteristics of hydroclimatic extremes. Precipitation serves as the primary driver of flood mechanisms. Humans adopt structural and non-structural measures to mitigate flood impacts. However, mismanagement can further exacerbate flooding. These interactions between hydrological system and human actions co-evolve over time, making it to model and understand these feedback loops for better resource management. My research focuses on understanding and modeling the impact of human interventions and their co-evolution with the hydrological system.
