Prof. AL. Ramanathan is a professor in the School of Environmental Sciences, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi, India. He has research interests in the fields of hydrogeochemistry of inland and coastal surface and ground waters and their resource management. Prof. Ramanathan has published more than a hundred papers in various peer-reviewed journals such as (Journal of Glaciology, J. Hydrology, Hydrological processes, Water resources, Estuarine coastal and shelf Sciences, Chemosphere, Bioresource Technology, Geoderma, etc). He has published more than seven books and several papers have been published as book chapters. Prof. Ramanathan has conducted eleven International /National workshops/training programs/conferences on the various theme of sheer importance. His work has been well supported by various national (UGC, DST, MoEF, MoWR, etc) and international funding organizations (SIDA, IFS, FORMAS, JAMSTEC, Indo-Australia fund-AIMS). He has completed collaborative projects with institutions from France, Sweden, Australia, and Russia. Sangam Shrestha is Associate Professor and Program Chair of Water Engineering and Management at the Asian Institute of Technology. He researches water resources management, climate change impact assessment, and groundwater assessment and management. Shrestha has published more than 100 papers in peer-reviewed journals and presented more than 60 conference papers. He is the co-author of “Groundwater Environment in Asian Cities: Concepts, Methods and Case Studies” (Elsevier) Dr. Keisuke Kuroda is an Associate Professor at the Department of Environmental and Civil Engineering, Toyama Prefectural University, Japan. He received his Ph.D. in Engineering from the University of Tokyo (2010). He was a postdoctoral research fellow at Eawag, Switzerland, and was a senior scientist at National Institute for Environmental Studies (NIES), Japan. His research interests lie in the dynamics of various natural and man-made pollutants in water environments,bioassays for rapid pollutant identification, environmental modeling of radionuclides, water use scenario and accompanying health risk in an emergency, wastewater-based epidemiology, risk assessment of antiviral drugs. Interests include: subsurface geochemistry and mitigation technologies of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs), such as pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs), arsenic, and radionuclides. Recent research focuses include environmental pollution associated with disasters and their exposure to humans. He is serving as one of the editorial board members in Science of the Total Environment.
