Research Experiences
Graduate Research Assistant - Hydroclimatology (Sep-2020 to Present)
Investigating the hydrological changes using streamflow and climate data
Processing and analyzing of long-term daily precipitation and streamflow data
Understanding relationship of precipitation to extreme events of flooding and droughts
Researcher (Master’s student) (Sep-2020 to Aug-2022)
Past and future changes toward earlier timing of streamflow over Pakistan from bias-corrected regional climate projections (1962-2099)
Investigated the earlier streamflow timing in the four major river basins (Indus, Kabul, Jhelum, Chenab) of Pakistan.
Found the earlier onset of spring for the four river basins using daily streamflow records.
Analyzed the impact of near-surface temperature and precipitation records on the streamflow values and found the relationship between snow cover area of specific basins with their streamflow values
Wastewater Treatment (Undergraduate student) (Mar-2018 to Jun-2018)
Domestic wastewater treatment using Rotating Biological Contactors (RBCs)
