Lisa Victoria Alexander is an Australian professor and climatologist, with a specific focus on heat waves. She received the Dorothy Hill Medal for her research on climate extremes, the frequency and intensity of heat waves. Her research has provided evidence that the frequency and intensity of heat waves will be influenced by the quantity of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, in particular ca
