Postdoctoral Researchers
Adam is a physical oceanographer who analyzes the fluctuations in tides and sea level on global and regional levels, with a special focus on the nonstationary of tides under sea level rise and other climate-related factors. He studies the patterns of water level and meteorological changes using historical records and modern satellite data to better predict future flood scenarios and impacts on coastal resilience.
