Steven Strader

Dr. Steven Strader is a physical geographer, atmospheric scientist, and geographic information systems (GIS) analyst with interests in coupled human-environment interactions, severe and local storms, mesoscale meteorology, natural hazard vulnerability and risk, and GIScience applications in the geophysical, atmospheric, and hazard sciences.  His past research has primarily concentrated on the spatiotemporal changes in meteorological and environmental hazard exposure, future changes in severe weather risk and exposure, and the development of a Monte Carlo tornado model that assess potential damage and losses on the human-built environment.
