Interest in synergistic areas that include hydraulic engineering, soil physics, and eco-hydrology. Experience in numerical modeling of subsurface flow dynamics and solute transport at different spatial scales: plot scale (HYDRUS 1D-2D, SWAP), field scale (HydroGeoSphere), catchment scale (SWAT, AGWA) and continental scale (PCR-GLOBWB). Great interest in soil spectroscopy (Vis-NIR-MIR) based on UAS and remote sensing, impact of climate and land use change on ecosystem services, phytoremediation, contaminant flow, groundwater recharge, root water and nutrient uptake mechanisms, stable isotope tracking. Our research group carries out different laboratory experiments and field activities.
