Rahim's research has been focused on the effects of microbially-induced calcium carbonate precipitation on the retention properties of unsaturated soils.
His paper (the one appearing above) can be accessed at:

It was with my great delight that I learned Rahim's research results were of use and interest to colleagues working on the potential of microbially-induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) in mitigating drought, for instance, please see the following:
