Wildfire Resilience

This project develops a network analysis framework for studying community resilience after wildfire disasters. The work starts from the observation that resilience is difficult to quantify, especially when the goal is to understand how communities rebound over time rather than only describing pre-disaster vulnerability.

Using human mobility data, the study examines how communities were disrupted by major California wildfires and how their activity patterns recovered. The work shifts resilience analysis from static indicators toward a dynamic view of robustness, vulnerability, and recovery in the aftermath of disaster.
