Bio<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I am a researcher specializing in geospatial artificial intelligence (GeoAI), remote sensing, and environmental hazard assessment. My research integrates Earth observation, machine learning, and spatial modeling to investigate natural hazards, environmental change, and climate-related risks. I am particularly interested in developing data-driven and interpretable modeling approaches to support environmental monitoring, disaster risk reduction, and climate resilience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am currently a Canada Impact+ Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the School of Climate Change and Adaptation<\/a>, University of Prince Edward Island (UPEI), where I work under the supervision of Dr. Sara Sadri<\/a>, Canada Research Chair in Remote Sensing and Water Security, as a member of the HydroTerra Lab<\/a>. My current research focuses on applying Earth observation, artificial intelligence, and environmental data science to advance drought monitoring, water security, and climate resilience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before joining UPEI, I was a Research Fellow at the National Institute of Oceanography and Applied Geophysics (OGS) in Italy, where I contributed to international research on landslide susceptibility mapping and cross-border natural hazard assessment. Previously, I served as an Assistant Professor of Physical Geography at Tartous University, where I was involved in teaching, research, and graduate student supervision<\/p>\n\n\n\n
