As I approach the culmination of my Ph.D. in Hydrology and Water Resources at the Institute of Environmental Hydraulics, University of Cantabria, Spain, my passion for understanding and addressing critical water-related challenges has deepened.My academic voyage has been anchored in the pursuit of knowledge and solutions for the complex issues surrounding hydrology and water resources. As a Ph.D. candidate, I have immersed myself in the intricate realm of Hydrological models at the Institute of Environmental Hydraulics. The journey, marked by rigorous exploration and continuous learning, is set to reach its zenith in 2024, hopefully.As a researcher at the Institute of Environmental Hydraulics, my professional expedition delves into diverse aspects of hydrology, with a primary focus on hydrological models, streamflow prediction, floods, and the transformative realm of Deep Learning. The nexus between traditional and Machine Learning-based hydrological models has been a cornerstone of my expertise, allowing for a holistic understanding of water systems.A pivotal facet of my current research involves the application of Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks for streamflow prediction, with a specific emphasis on hourly flood forecasting. This endeavor is more than an academic pursuit; it is a commitment to developing practical tools that can enhance our ability to anticipate and mitigate the impact of floods, safeguarding communities and ecosystems.My research interests, akin to tributaries converging into a vast river, span Hydrology and Water Resources, with a notable emphasis on the transformative power of Machine Learning. The confluence of traditional and ML-based hydrological models has equipped me with a nuanced understanding of Climate Change Impacts, Climate Extremes, Floods, Droughts, and Risk Management.Beyond the realm of research and academia, I have ventured into the landscape of environmental activism. For over a decade, I have been a dedicated humanitarian volunteer, collaborating with esteemed organizations such as the United Nations and various NGOs in the Middle East. This engagement has afforded me invaluable insights into Natural Hazards Relief Programs, Human Rights advocacy, particularly Children's Rights, and the intricate interplay between environmental challenges and societal well-being.My dedication to environmental activism is an extension of my ethos as a Passionate Environmentalist. The urgency of global environmental issues, including climate change and water scarcity, has galvanized my commitment to making a tangible difference in the world. I believe that as scientists and advocates, we bear a collective responsibility to bridge the gap between knowledge and action.As I navigate the currents of academia, research, and activism, I am acutely aware of the interconnectedness of these realms. The challenges we face in hydrology and water resources demand not only scientific prowess but also ethical consideration and societal engagement. My journey, shaped by education, research, and a fervent commitment to environmental activism, underscores the potential for positive change when knowledge converges with action.In the years ahead, I aspire to contribute meaningfully to the field of hydrology and Machine Learning, leveraging my expertise to advance our understanding of water systems and enhance our capacity to address pressing environmental challenges. As I prepare to embark on the next phase of my career, I am driven by the belief that the confluence of knowledge and action holds the key to a more sustainable and resilient future for our one and only Earth.
