His previous work covers climate-change impacts on coastal flooding and temperature extremes, as well as hydrodynamic and estuarine circulation modeling. Mohsen&#8217;s publications include articles in Scientific Reports, Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, Cambridge Prisms: Coastal Futures, and Communications Earth &amp; Environment. He is also a co-author of the Sixth Oregon Climate Assessment. Mohsen\u2019s work at the CoRE Lab focuses on developing numerical models to simulate the mutual interactions between coastal geomorphological changes and compound flooding. His research contributes to more efficient and accurate assessments of the hazards that compound flooding events pose to coastal systems.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-6129 img-fluid aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/02\/MT-2-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/02\/MT-2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/02\/MT-2-300x400.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/02\/MT-2-270x360.jpg 270w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/02\/MT-2.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>CONTACT INFORMATION:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Email: <a href=\"mailto:mohsen.taherkhani@ucf.edu\">mohsen.taherkhani@ucf.edu<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>LinkedIn: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/mohsen-taherkhani\/\">Mohsen Taherkhani<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Google Scholar: <a href=\"https:\/\/scholar.google.com\/citations?hl=en&amp;user=SL_zfXcAAAAJ\">Mohsen Taherkhani<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"BIOGRAPHY: Mohsen joined the CoRE Lab at UCF as a postdoctoral researcher in Fall 2025, working under the supervision of Dr. Thomas Wahl.
