Research Interests
- Water, heat, and chemical transport measurement and modeling in variably-saturated porous media ranging from core-scale to regional-scale
- Measurement, scaling, and estimation of soil hydraulic properties
- Preferential water flow and chemical transport through macroporous and fractured media
- Spatial
variability of soil hydraulic and transport properties
in the context of deterministic/stochastic modeling - Watershed scale flow and transport modeling
- Adaptive geostatistical and exploratory data analysis techniques
- Soil moisture remote sensing, scaling, and ground validation
- Geohydrological and geoenvironmental applications
- To address nonpoint source resource management problems
- Development and application of the state-of-the-art expert systems
- Neural Network (NN) based pedo-topo-vegetation transfer functions (PTVTFs)
- Geographical Information Systems (GIS)
