Kamalakanta Sahu is a Water Resources and Environmental Researcher specializing in groundwater sustainability, contaminant transport modelling, AI/ML applications, isotope hydrogeology, GIS-based environmental assessment, and remediation strategies. He completed his Ph.D. research at IIT Delhi, focusing on nitrate transport through groundwater, source identification, vulnerability assessment, human health risk, predictive modelling, and remediation of contaminated groundwater.

His technical expertise includes FEFLOW, MODFLOW, MT3DMS, GIS, machine learning, numerical modelling, isotope tracer techniques, and environmental risk assessment. His research integrates advanced computational and geospatial approaches to address complex challenges in water security, groundwater contamination, climate resilience, and sustainable water-resource management.

He is also developing a GIS- and AI-enabled groundwater assessment and decision-support platform, aimed at identifying contamination hotspots, predicting groundwater risks, and supporting evidence-based remediation and sustainable groundwater management.

His long-term research interests lie at the intersection of AI, digital twins, groundwater modelling, environmental sustainability, and smart water-resource management, with the goal of translating advanced research into practical solutions for industry, government, and society.
