Water Sustainability and Predictive Modelling

Dr. Manish Kumar, Associate Professor, Amity University, Noida, Uttar Pradesh, India has done his PhD in Microbiology from ICAR-National Bureau of Agriculturally Important Microorganisms & RD University, Jabalpur. He has expertise in the field of plant-microbe interaction, microbial metagenomics, microbial diversity, and in-silico vaccine designing. He has qualified ICAR-NET with experiences like RA and SRF in ICAR and CSIR labs. He is a recipient of SERB SIRE (SERB International Research Experience-2022) fellowship from DST (Department of Science & Technology), Govt. of India. He worked under the guidance of Dr. Marina Kalyuzhnaya, Professor, Department of Biology, San Diego State University, USA. He is the Editor and reviewer of different reputed research journals in the field of microbiology. He has organized several workshops, and national/international conferences as organizing and joint organizing secretary. Vivek Agarwal is a Lecturer at the School of Engineering, Northumbria University, Newcastle, United Kingdom. Before this, he pursued his PhD from the University of Nottingham in Geospatial Environment Engineering. His thesis title was “Study of groundwater properties and behavior using geospatial tools”, and he was awarded “the best PhD Thesis award” for his doctoral thesis. Dr. Agarwal has published 10+ international publications. He has a wide-ranging research interest in subjects related to civil engineering and interdisciplinary areas. His expertise is in remote sensing, GIS, water supply, hydraulics, fluid mechanics, water quality and sewage pollution. He intends to combine NASA’s GRACE gravity anomalies relating and InSAR land subsidence data relating them to groundwater quantity and quality variations. The aim of the research is to find solutions to the Climate Emergency by better understanding and managing the earth’s groundwater resources. Professor. Vijay P. Singh is a globally renowned hydrologist and engineer, currently a Distinguished Professor and Regents Professor at Texas A&M University, where he holds the Caroline and William N. Lehrer Distinguished Chair in Water Engineering. With a career spanning decades, his contributions to surface and groundwater hydrology, hydraulics, irrigation, and water resources management are widely recognized. He has authored over 1,200 journal articles, numerous textbooks, and handbooks, significantly shaping the field. His research encompasses watershed modeling, climate change impacts, and entropy-based hydrologic theories. Prof. Singh's outstanding contributions have earned him prestigious accolades, including the Ven Te Chow Award, Ray K. Linsley Award, and the Norman Medal. Beyond research, he serves as Editor-in-Chief for key hydrology journals, further advancing the discipline.
