I'm Sarah Perkins-Kirkpatrick, a climate scientist interested in extreme events. I am currently an ARC Future Fellowship, a chief investigator on the ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate Extremes, and am a senior lecturer at the School of Science, UNSW Canberra. I research heatwaves, currently focusing on comprehensive methods of attributing heatwaves to climate change, and how we might be able in attribute the health impacts of heatwaves to climate change. I also have research interests in marine heatwaves, their linkages to atmospheric heatwaves, and past and future changes of both types of events.
