Projects

Health and economic effects of extreme heat 🌇 [2021-]

As part of my Ph. D. at INRS and my research internships at INSPQ and BCCDC/UBC.

  • Modelling the heat-related health impacts using machine and deep learning models
  • Estimating the heat burden and associated health costs with projected climate change
  • Analyzing vulnerability factors to extreme heat such as medication use and schizophrenia

An example of results for health costs in Quebec :

Related publications : Papers #5–#7, #10, #12-#13, Reports #1-#2

As part of my research scientist position at The Co-operators.

  • Modelling and simulating river and coastal flood risk at the Canadian level
  • Projection of climate change impacts for convective storms, hurricane and flooding
  • Tools for spatial concentration and natural disaster risk management

An example of results for summer flooding across Canada :

Related publications : Papers #8–#9, #11

Functional regression models in ecohydrology 🏞 [2016-2019]

As part of my M. Sc. in statistical hydrology at INRS.

  • Statistical modelling of ecohydrological variables (temperature, flow, habitat, etc.)
  • Analysis of the physico-thermal fish habitat variability
  • Team leader for river data sampling during two summers

An example of results for simulated stream tempearture in the US :

Other publications : Papers #1–#4, Master thesis
