Dr Kelton Minor applies spatial data science and computational methods to study the human dimensions of climate change impacts and adaptation. As a postdoctoral research scientist, he is currently working on several projects that bridge between Columbia University’s Data Science Institute and Climate School to identify how climate stressors impact human behavioral outcomes at scales ranging from communities to continents. He is a member of The Lancet Countdown on Health and Climate Change’s Working Group 1, and is developing global indicators to monitor behavioral and mental health responses to local climate extremes. Kelton received a Ph.D. in Planetary Social and Behavioral Data Science at the University of Copenhagen.
