Hydrological modeling and hydro-climatic uncertainty assessment at river basin scale Surface hydrology, Numerical modeling, Uncertainty assessment, Climate change Prof. A. Bellin Research Interests My general research interest covers the areas of Hydraulics and Environmental Fluid Mechanics, with a focus on Physical Limnology. My activity is aimed at understanding and describing complex natural phenomena by combining the development of simple mathematical models and the analysis of observational data, both in situ and remotelysensed. My most recent research is in the field of Surface Hydrology, where I am working on the development of a highly parallelizable, simple and rapid regional scale hydrological model, to be directly coupled with GCMs or RCMs. Education Nov 2009 – Apr 2013 dissertation research field supervisor Ph.D. in Environmental Engineering, University of Trento, Italy.
