Annalisa Molini

Annalisa Molini is Associate Professor at Tulane University specializing in ecohydrology and hydroclimatology. Her research examines connections between hydrological cycles, vegetation dynamics, and climate systems across scales. Key contributions investigate salinization processes, drought-flood extremes, and land-atmosphere interactions.

Research employs hybrid physically-based/stochastic models to study ecohydrological feedbacks in river basins from the Mississippi to the Amazon. Current work analyzes coastal wetland resilience to saltwater intrusion and climate-driven changes in precipitation regimes. Molini serves as Editor for Hydrological Processes and contributed to COP26 climate visions. International collaborations advance understanding of hydrological extremes in hyper-arid regions and photovoltaics reliability under climate variability.
