Wenyuan Ma

Dr. Wenyuan Ma is a researcher at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) Canberra campus, specializing in pyro-cumulonimbus (pyroCb) bushfire dynamics and wildfire management. Their work focuses on understanding the geographical patterns of pyroCb occurrences and developing predictive models to guide future fire management strategies in Australia and beyond.

Research interests include:

• Quantifying drivers of pyroCb development
• Climate change impacts on wildfire risks
• Machine learning applications for environmental data
• International collaboration on atmospheric fire phenomena

Their work integrates geographical information systems (GIS), atmospheric science, and machine learning to analyze fire-environment interactions. They are affiliated with UNSW's research infrastructure and collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to address climate resilience challenges.
