Autorenporträt

Mr. Sirak Tekleab Gebrekristos is a lecturer at Hawassa University, Institute of Technology, Ethiopia. By profession he is a catchment hydrologist with an engineering background working extensively on planning and designing of water resources development projects. He has been involved in designing small scale irrigation development projects in Ethiopia. From 2008 to 2014, he has worked as PhD research fellow at UNESCO-IHE/TU-Delft, The Netherlands. During the course of his PhD, he studied the Abay/Upper Blue Nile basin hydrology at various spatio-temporal scales using a combination of different methods. Moreover, he has supervised MSc students and served as a reviewer for different international journals. Furthermore, he attended the course requirement for the Research School SENSE (Socio-economic and Natural Sciences of the Environment). Mr. Sirak published several articles in peer reviewed journals and presented his research outputs at different international conferences. His research interests include catchment processes understanding through modelling, stable isotopes for hydrological application, stochastic modelling, remote sensing application to water resources, water system analysis, surface water-groundwater interactions, climate change and water resources management.
