Daneeja Mawren PhD.

My main research interest is to understand the causes of weather and climate-related disasters (Tropical cyclones, extreme temperature, and rainfall) to mitigate future catastrophes in vulnerable coastal areas, like Mozambique and Madagascar. Recently, my work has been focused on understanding the role of upper ocean dynamics in climate and extreme weather and identifying the physical processes responsible for increased warming (Marine heatwaves) in the Southwest Indian Ocean.
