As a Senior Scientific Officer at the Centre for Space Research and Applications (CESRA), my principal research interests include the climate change impacts on the environment and integrated techniques for adaptation and resilience. I am a remote sensing scientist and GIS specialist with both professional experience and an academic background. I have extensive experience with image processing, time series analysis, spatial analysis, cartography, and database management/maintenance. I use ArcGIS, QGIS, SWAT, ENVI, SNAP, IDL, Python, NCL, Ferret & R for ocean and climate models, analyses etc., with particular emphasis on open source libraries and extensions. Working with high-level stakeholders (such as the World Bank, ACMAD, GCRF-African SWIFT, and IITA) ensures that my research focuses on the most relevant extremes, i.e. those that pose the largest social risks. I have over 25 peer-reviewed papers to my credit, including some in conference proceedings, and I am currently working on the IPCC Assessment Report and many book chapters. I am a self- driven, budding academic with strong oral and written communication skills. Over the past ten years, I have demonstrated effectiveness in classroom teaching and learning, faculty cooperation, and academic publishing. I am known for innovative student-centered teaching practices and a strong interest in climate change risk management and adaptation research, particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa. My Doctoral research focused on the impacts of climate change and extreme events along the Gulf of Guinea region. I seek to further work extensively in this area with a wider scope beyond the North Atlantic region.
