About

Park Williams is an Associate Professor at the University of California Los Angeles, USA. His research primarily focuses on the impacts of climate change on wildfire occurrence and forest ecosystems, as evidenced by his recent articles on wildfire season onset, climate-fire synchrony, and ecosystem carbon and water fluxes. He also investigates the effects of anthropogenic climate change on precipitation patterns and drought recovery in western US forests.
