About Daniel Peregrina Gonzalez

Daniel Peregrina is an environmental scientist and a PhD researcher at Deltares and the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam Institute for Environmental Studies (IVM). His research focuses on adaptation of critical infrastructure to climate hazards. He studies how the benefits, costs, co-benefits, and trade-offs of adaptation options can be quantified to support decision making. Recently he has worked on the appraisal of adaptation measures to address flooding in transportation networks.

Daniel is interested in understanding the economic, social, and environmental implications of adaptation. His current research explores how adaptation measures can be used to manage risk in a multi-hazard context, where flood risk is not the only consideration to be made, but also the risk of drought, heat, wildfires, and other hazards driven by climate change.

Daniel has a background in industrial health, safety and environmental management and emergency preparedness and response.
