Research Interests
.The Environmental Soil Physics group studies different aspects of agricultural/environmental interplays
We incorporate experimental work at different scales, from the micro scale to the field scale, and models to develop new methods to evaluate multiphase fate and transport and design of mitigating and remediation systems to deal with different types of contaminations.
Research Areas
Multiphase flow and transport in porous media.
Soil aeration and gas transport through porous media.
Fluid dynamics in partially saturated media at different scales using different scientific methods and tools.
Remediation methods for contaminated soils and groundwaters
