Simona Meiler
Postdoctoral Scholar, Civil and Environmental Engineering
BioI am a weather and climate risk scientist, studying how hazard, exposure, and vulnerability interact to shape the risks and impacts of extreme weather events – both today and in a changing climate. My work combines modeling and systems thinking to explore a range of topics, including tropical cyclone risk, uncertainty and sensitivity analysis, human displacement, post-disaster recovery, and systemic risk. My approach is inherently interdisciplinary, with the goal of translating model insights into real-world applications that support climate-resilient decision-making.
I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at Stanford University, supported by an SNSF Postdoc.Mobility fellowship, working with Prof. Jack W. Baker. I completed my PhD at ETH Zurich in weather and climate risk modeling, with a focus on global tropical cyclone risk and uncertainty quantification, under the supervision of Prof. David N. Bresch. -
