My Ph.D research includes subjects such as Frequency Analysis, Regional Frequency Analysis, determining homogeneous regions using L-moments method, and analyzing projected rainfall data up to the year 2104 using the Japanese Atmospheric General Circulation Model (MRI-AGCM3.2s) outputs. After being exposed to various international meetings, conferences and training around the world (Japan, Newcastle UK, Singapore) during my Ph.D years, I had realized the importants of global warming and extreme rainfalls particularly in regions near my home-country, Malaysia.
Thus, my current main research interest now is on research relating to understanding and improving methods for extreme rainfall analysis (frequency analysis, PMP, regional frequency analysis, etc.), extreme floods and climate change particularly for the South East Asian region. My main focus right now would be analysis on the Malaysian region. Since Malaysia is exposed to extreme weather conditions and are sensitive to climate change due to its position near the equatorial, topics on extreme rainfall and climate change are a big issue that needs to be address for Malaysia.
