Hydro-climatic extremes in Southeast Asia under SRM
Project summary
Prof. Kuswanto and his team are researching the potential impacts of SRM on the climate in Southeast Asia. The project builds on the pioneering SRM research conducted by the team since 2018 on extreme temperature and precipitation over Indonesia. Their goal is now to understand how SRM could influence rainfall and temperature extremes as well as floods and droughts in the river basins of Bengawan Solo in Indonesia, Kelantan in Malaysia, and Vu Gia-Thu Bon in Vietnam. The project is hosted at the Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember in Surabaya, Indonesia, and features collaborations with researchers from Universiti Sains Malaysia and Nong Lam University in Vietnam.
