AghaKouchak‘s research is interdisciplinary and crosses the boundaries between hydrology, climatology, statistics and remote sensing to address critical global water resource issues. His long-term research objective is to utilize continuously growing satellite data along with ground-based observations to develop/improve integrated drought, flood and landslide modeling, prediction and decision support systems. His focus in the area of hydrologic extremes (flood/landslide/draught) has the potential for cross-over into other hazards that are of interest to CEE, including those of a structural and geotechnical nature.
