Analysis of land–atmosphere interactions in rapidly urbanizing tropical regions and exploration of spatial and temporal dynamics of heatwaves and their interactions with the Urban Heat Island effect.
Multi-source climatic and satellite datasets are used to derive and interpret key heatwave indicators following internationally recognized methodologies, developing an integrated understanding of how land-surface processes, urban morphology, and climate variability jointly shape thermal extremes.
