His research focuses on the management of climate risks to freshwater systems and urban environments. He co-developed the Statistical DownScaling Model (SDSM) – a public domain climate scenario tool that has been used in numerous risk assessments, including for water resources, fluvial flooding and tidal surge,  air quality, and urban heat stress. His latest book Climate Change in Practice seeks to provoke readers into thinking more deeply about the practical, socio-economic, and moral aspects of improving resilience to climate hazards
