She specialises in responses to climate extremes, particularly urban heat and overheating risks in the UK, and explores how inclusive risk communication can drive equitable adaptation. Her contributions include high-impact publications on extreme heat adaptation, SME decarbonisation, and climate services, as well as policy recommendations. She has held a British Academy Innovation Fellowship on residential cooling in a changing climate and has seen her research featured in national and international media. Dr Khosravi translates academic insights into actionable policy on climate adaptation.
