Rui Guo is a PhD candidate at the Department of Civil, Chemical, Environmental, and Materials Engineering (DICAM) at University of Bologna. He is conducting research under the supervision of Prof. Alberto Montanari, focusing on understanding the long-term multi-year drought characteristics by integrating in-situ observation, tree-rings-based reconstruction, and climate model simulations.

His awarded presentation at EGU 2024 focused on (i) reconstruct the streamflow of rivers originated from European Alps in past nine centuries, (ii) evaluate the ability of GCMs and reconstructions in simulating the statistics of observed long-term streamflow by focusing on multiyear hydrological droughts and (iii) to infer how streamflow and drought risk was like in the past and how will it change in the future.
