Dr Boen Zhang

Boen joined the water lab in the hydro-climate extremes group (led by Dr Louise Slater) as a postdoctoral research associate in September 2023. He works on a research project DRIFT, in which he uses machine learning and climate modelling to improve global flood predictions. His research interests include hydroclimatic extreme events and climate inequality.
