PROFILE

Vitor Lavor

Worked on the UMEP-dev/SUEWS repository to enhance atmospheric and urban canopy modeling, focusing on stability, physical realism, and data integrity. Delivered features such as refined atmospheric stability calculations, improved betaN2 and blending height algorithms, and integration of new urban canopy parameters. Addressed edge cases and ensured non-physical results were prevented through careful code refactoring and parameter tuning. Used Fortran and Python to implement numerical methods, update test data, and resolve code conflicts, resulting in more robust simulations and reliable outputs. Maintained clear documentation and code cleanliness, supporting ongoing model development and alignment with urban environmental simulation standards.
