Lorna Burnell is a PhD student at the Modelling and Analytics for a Sustainable Society doctoral training centre, hosted at the University of Nottingham in the United Kingdom and funded by the Leverhulme Trust. Lorna visited Harvard's Solar Geoengineering Research Program alongside a number of other scholars from around the world who are working as part of DECIMALS research groups. Her research looks to explore how solar geoengineering may influence aspects of the global hydrological system. She is particularly interested in understanding the future impacts solar geoengineering may have on regional water availability and drought, as well as the role that vegetation plays through the physiological effects of increasing CO₂.
