Research Areas

  • Nature-based solutions to flood and drought hazards 
  • Watershed's response to climate and land use changes
  • Large-scale hydrology and water quality modeling
  • Artificial Intelligence using remote sensing data
  • Hydroinformatics for data-model integration
  • Cyberinfrastructure

Our Goal

We tend to apply an integrated hydrologic + informatic (=hydroinformatic) approach for large-scale ecosystem modeling, management, and resilience studies, aiming at a Next-generation Geoscience paradigm. To achieve this goal, we conduct science-based and use-inspired research in collaborations with stakeholders and some of the leading scientists in the field. Learn more

Latest News

June 7, 2023
​Our work to develop a new NASA model to tackle global water quality problems has been featured by NASA Discoveries as a success story. This is the first framework capable of using Earth Observations for modeling climatic and human drivers of water quality across continental-scales. 


January 10, 2023
Dr. Rajib will co-lead a new $1M National Science Foundation
project targeting next-gen Open Science paradigm in climate, water, and environmental sustainability. Funded by NSF's Office of Advanced Cyberinfrastructure, the H2I Lab will develop a cyber-enabled framework where researchers will train on big data analytics, and learn how to integrate these data into simulation models and Artificial Intelligence (AI) using advanced cloud computing technologies. 
September 18, 2022
Our latest NASA project on predicting nation's water quality was featured in this TV news! The H2I Lab will lead a data-model interoperability experiment geared towards next-generation water quality remote sensing mission.  ​
May 15, 2022
Undergraduate Research Assistant Itohaosa Isibor has been named as the recipient of the Texas A&M University, Kingsville Honors College Distinguished Student Award. Her research on global floodplain alterations led to this highly competitive recognition.
