Water Resources Graduate Program

Dr. Babbar-Sebens’ research interests lie in the area of Water Resources and Environmental Systems Analysis.

Current research interests include:

• Interactive, multi-objective and stochastic optimization methods that support human-computer collaboration for planning and management of water-based systems.
• Systems scale design of green infrastructure for sustainable stormwater management in urban areas and design of conservation practices in agricultural landscapes.
• Water quality modeling of algal blooms and metabolites in inland surface water systems.
• Data assimilation in water quality numerical models.
• Human factors, machine learning methods, and high performance computing for simulation and design in coupled human-physical water-based problems.
