Coastal flooding risks from compound inundation under climate change and anthropogenic activity

Aiqing joined the group in Oct 2024 as a visiting academic scholar from the National Climate Centre of China Meteorological Administration (CMA), working on modelling of flooding risks from the compound of extreme precipitation, storm surge, astronomical tide and superimposed sea level rise including intensity, frequency and probability of occurrence, considering reconstructing the future LUCC to analyze the evolution trend and reveal the dominant role of human activities on the underlying surface of the disaster bearing body and establishing a disaster damage relationship.

She led and participated as a key member in over 10 provincial/national-level projects, published 40 papers, contributed to nearly 20 books, and obtained 7 software copyrights and 5 invention patents, with several policy recommendations adopted by decision-makers. Achieved innovative progress in climate risk, extreme events, and compound disasters, and played a key role in establishing national-level meteorological disaster risk management operations, while exploring the integration of meteorological disaster risk with key industries such as banking, insurance and transportation. She is selected for the 2024 High-level Technological Innovation Talent Program of China Meteorological Administration (Young Meteorological Talent) and the 2023 High-level Talent Program of National Climate Center (Outstanding Young Talent).
