Hydrology & Water Resources Lab

Department of Civil Engineering, Jeonbuk National University

We study how water moves between the land and the atmosphere, and how to manage it when the climate and society are both changing.

The lab is led by Daeha Kim, Associate Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering at Jeonbuk National University. We work on evapotranspiration and the land water balance, droughts and flash droughts, climate change adaptation for water infrastructure, streamflow prediction in ungauged basins, climate services for agriculture, and wetlands.
