Mark Nikolic
Postdoctoral Scholar, Earth and Planetary Sciences
BioI study large scale processes of evolution through earth history using the fossil record. In doing so, I make use of computational and phylogenetic approaches along with large datasets. I also lead the History of Life and Biodiversity summer internship through the Stanford Young Investigators program. Aside from fossils, I'm also a big fan of riding my bike and disco music.

Dr. Mahendra Nimmakanti
Postdoctoral Scholar, Earth System Science
BioI am a climate scientist with academic training spanning meteorology, oceanography, and climate dynamics, holding an M.Sc. in Meteorology and an M.Tech. in Atmospheric Sciences from Andhra University, and a Ph.D. in Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences from NIT Rourkela, where my doctoral research focused on monsoon variability and climate dynamics.
My research integrates advanced climate modeling (CESM2, RegCM5, WRF), large-scale diagnostic analysis, and high-performance computing to investigate the dynamics of the Indian Summer Monsoon, AMOC–monsoon teleconnections, ENSO interactions, tropical–extratropical coupling, and sub-seasonal to seasonal prediction. I have developed specialized diagnostic frameworks for identifying climate system transitions and tipping elements, and have collaborated actively with international research groups across Europe, North America, and South Asia. My work has appeared in peer-reviewed journals. -

Postdoctoral Scholar, Earth System Science
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsBy recreating high-resolution flood maps for the last 50 years in California, my research aims to cross-correlate flood hazard maps with medical records to investigate whether a causal relation exists.
