Mahdi Hasan

I'm a Northern Gulf Institute (NGI) Postdoctoral Associate (Mississippi State University & NOAA), based at NOAA's Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOML) in Miami, Florida. My research focuses on improving the subseasonal predictability of Atlantic tropical cyclones using traditional statistical approaches and machine learning models. I earned my Ph.D. in climate dynamics from North Carolina State University, where I studied internally and externally forced interactions between the tropical oceans and the Hadley circulation. Prior to the NGI position, I was a postdoctoral research scholar at North Carolina State University on an NSF collaborative project with George Mason University, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, and the University of Alaska Fairbanks, studying how Atlantic Meridional Mode variability scales with ENSO amplitude. More broadly, my work spans large-scale atmospheric and oceanic circulations, global and regional climate variability and change, and air–sea interactions. See my NOAA AOML profile →
