Dilip Naidu works on interdisciplinary research on climate change, carbon, and urban ecosystems. Dilip started his career as a mechanical engineer and soon shifted his focus to problems related to climate change, primarily on socio-ecological systems. His research involves the use of data-driven approaches to understand and quantify how climate change influences the ecology and vulnerability of both natural and urban ecosystems. Currently, Dilip also works on carbon and water dynamics in semi-wild and managed ecosystems, as well as carbon sequestration in urban green spaces.
