Associate Professor
University of Texas at Arlington, United States
Dr. Michelle Hummel is an Associate Professor of Civil Engineering at the University of Texas at Arlington. Her research focuses broadly on understanding how coupled human-natural systems respond to climate-driven disturbances in coastal regions through the development and application of numerical, statistical, and geospatial models. She has assembled interdisciplinary teams with colleagues from engineering and social sciences to pursue federal funding for projects that advance how coastal regions monitor and respond to natural hazards and climate impacts. Overall, her research efforts are contributing to an improved understanding of the physical drivers of flood hazards, the resulting impacts on coastal populations and infrastructure systems, and the effectiveness of mitigation and adaptation strategies meant to enhance resilience to future events. Dr. Hummel holds a B.S. degree in Civil Engineering from Case Western Reserve University and M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Environmental Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley.
