His research quantifies systemic climate risks to infrastructure systems across scales—from household services to global food flows. He develops geospatial modelling tools to enhance resilience planning, particularly in the Global South, while addressing inequality reduction and sustainable development.
Recent trends in his publications focus on climate adaptation finance mechanisms, disparities in food access through geospatial trade cost analysis, coastal infrastructure vulnerabilities, and green ammonia energy storage solutions. These works emphasize cross-border systemic risks, policy evaluation, and real-time data integration.
Professional engagements include advising the World Bank, OECD, EBRD, and UK Government on systemic risks and infrastructure planning. He co-founded the PortWatch platform for global trade monitoring and contributes to international climate resilience frameworks.
