Dr Neven S. Fučkar is a climate and data scientist working on dynamics, modelling, attribution and impacts of extreme events (e.g., heatwaves, droughts, floods, sea-ice retreat, etc.) in a changing climate. Neven's research interests encompass coupled climate dynamics and high-resolution prediction, polar processes, water cycle, and numerical methods, statistics, machine learning and AI. His interdisciplinary research involves the interaction of the climate system and extreme events with society along multiple human dimensions (e.g., public health, early childhood development, multisectoral climate-related risk, water management, energy transition, economy, etc.) to advance resilience, adaptation, and sustainability. Neven frequently engages with national and international stakeholders from the UK Health Security Agency to the World Bank, and he has extensive experience with outreach (e.g., Oxford University Museum of Natural History, COP26 University Network podcasts, ClimArts, etc.).
