معرفی
Ismaila Diallo is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Meteorology and Climate Science at San José State University's College of Science, where he conducts interdisciplinary research at the Wildfire Interdisciplinary Research Center (WIRC). His work bridges climate modeling, extreme event prediction, and environmental impacts across Africa and global systems.
His educational background includes:
- Ph.D. in Climate and Climatic Impacts, Cheikh Anta Diop University, Senegal (2015)
- GRA in Numerical Modeling, International Centre for Theoretical Physics, Italy (2014)
- M.Sc. in Meteorology and Oceanography, Cheikh Anta Diop University, Senegal (2009)
- B.S. in Physics and Chemistry, Cheikh Anta Diop University, Senegal (2007)
Diallo's research focuses on land surface modeling and land-atmosphere-ocean interactions, with particular emphasis on monsoon systems, climate variability, and wildfire-climate relationships. His innovative work integrates artificial intelligence for Earth systems to enhance subseasonal-to-seasonal prediction capabilities. Recent publications reveal a strong trend toward analyzing Tibetan Plateau land temperature effects on global precipitation patterns and advancing African climate modeling through initiatives like GEWEX/LS4P. His methodological approach combines regional downscaling with machine learning techniques to address climate extremes.
As an educator, Diallo teaches foundational and advanced courses including Weather and Climate (METR 10), Global Warming: Science and Solutions (METR 12), and Global Climate Modeling (METR 173), translating complex climate dynamics into accessible knowledge for future scientists.
