About Me
I am a PhD student supervised by Dr. Lauren Cook (Eawag) and Prof. Gabriele Manoli (EPFL). My research aims to evaluate the impact of vegetation on thermal regulation in urban green spaces in the current and future Swiss climate. I work with field observations for local climate variables and computational modelling to investigate how vegetation traits and assemblages affect the microclimate.
