About
I am interested in computational hydrology, including hydro-biogeochemical processes and modelling across different climate zones and how they are impacted by climate change. I focus on developing and applying multi-scale numerical models of hydrology, hydrodynamics, climate and water quality, which have been used in several countries, including the USA, Canada, UK, Switzerland, Singapore, Norway, Portugal and Cape Verde.
There is a great consensus that predictive systems provide cost-effective ways for testing management solutions that balance economic and environmental factors. My objective is to support the development of modelling and sensing systems of water quantity and quality to support process understanding, decision analysis and participatory processes with provincial, national and international stakeholders and policy-makers. I have experience with parallel programming and High-Performance Computing (HPC), different programming languages such as C/C++, FORTRAN, Python, MATLAB, Octave, VBA and Java, and across the main operating systems, Linux, macOS and Windows.
