Siam Maksud

Focus: Computational Hydrology, Watershed Modelling and Nutrient Management, Physics Informed Machine Learning application in Soil Moisture detection. 

Siam's research focuses on bridging physics informed machine learning with hydrological models. He is also working on developing hydrological model to distribute nutrient load from dairy farm outputs. The goal of his research is to find insight into catchment responses to various atmospheric variables and understand the role of antecedent soil moisture in it.
