Water Resources Management and Environmental Hydraulics

As water is a vital resource and exposed to environmental effects, human society is inextricably connected to and reliant on nature and its waters.

The aims and scope of the research group are to:

promote sustainable use of water and advance the assessment and prediction of the state of the water environment
measure and quantify changes in water and the water environment caused by anthropogenic activities in both empirical and laboratory settings
develop computational hydrology and hydraulics applications, ecohydraulics, nature-based solutions and basin-scale process examination – the watershed basin is our key unit, enabling the study of the effects of land cover and sub-processes related to precipitation, evapotranspiration, water storage and runoff development
In this area, the main topics of our work are:

ecohydraulics and nature-based solutions
water in cities
water in agricultural areas
water in forests
