Co-Reseacher: Health Excellence Fund (HEF) – The purpose of this project is to develop detailed hydrologic models for assessment and amelioration of public health impacts due to hurricanes/major floods. Using New Orleans as a test case, I am developing techniques to quantify the extent and duration of flooding. Model results will be provided to state and federal emergency management agencies to reduce loss of life and property damages.

Co-Reseacher: ADCIRC modeling for coastal flooding due to hurricanes and storm surges – I am working with the support from the University of Notre Dame to use ADCIRC model to forecast hurricane-induced surges. I will also coordinate with state emergency management personnel to provide them with model results. In this project I am using LSU’s parallel supercomputer (SuperMike) along with PC based pre and post processor SMS software package.
