Supervision

In many of the projects I am involved in, as well as in PhD supervision teams, I collaborate closely with colleagues both within and beyond the Earth Systems and Global Change group. These collaborations span various disciplines, institutions, and countries, fostering interdisciplinary approaches to tackling complex scientific challenges. I am deeply grateful for these fruitful partnerships, as they not only enhance our knowledge and research but also lead to innovative solutions for real-world problems. Working with diverse teams allows for the exchange of ideas, methodologies, and perspectives, strengthening the impact of our research on natural hazards, climate adaptation, and sustainable development.

Note: Instead of “Team” page, I use the word “Supervision” to avoid potential conflict with Promotor(s) and another co-promotor.

I’m Samuel

I am an expert in natural hazard forecasting and climate information services, with a specialization in compound extremes, their impacts, and climate adaptation. I have been involved in numerous projects across Indonesia and Europe. Additionally, I am passionate about teaching and supervising students.

Currently I am working at Earth Systems and Global Change (ESC) group, Wageningen University and Research (WUR) as an Assistant Professor (UD1) in Compound Hydrological Extremes and Climate Services.

About me

I am a scientist with a passion for shaping future leaders and making the world a better place by reducing the impacts of natural hazards. In my free time, I enjoy playing badminton and tennis, as well as road biking.

I studied Civil Engineering at Parahyangan Catholic University in Bandung, Indonesia, with a major in Hydrology and Hydraulics. I completed my master’s degree in Hydrology and Water Resources at UNESCO-IHE Delft, the Netherlands and obtained my PhD from the Atmospheric Physics and Chemistry group at Utrecht University, the Netherlands.
