We are seeking a highly motivated and technically skilled Research Fellow to join our interdisciplinary project on urban heat island (UHI) mitigation through a novel nowcasting system. Supported by NRF, the project aims to develop a microclimate nowcasting platform that delivers real-time, hyperlocal information on urban heat risks in tropical cities. Leveraging Doppler lidar–based microclimate studies and machine learning, the research emphasizes vulnerable groups such as the elderly, low-income households, individuals with pre-existing health conditions, children, and outdoor workers. By integrating climate science, urban analytics, and social research, the project will generate actionable insights for communities, healthcare providers, educators, and policymakers. Ultimately, it seeks to enhance climate and health resilience while examining how timely climate information can strengthen community networks and encourage adaptive behaviors in a warmin...
