Welcome to the Website of Dr. Qin Xiaosheng! My research focuses on development and
application of systems analysis approaches for addressing regional
environmental and water resources issues. RESEARCH AREAS 1.
Hydrological Modelling and Extreme Weather Analysis I specialize in employing advanced modeling techniques to
understand hydrological systems and analyze the impacts of extreme weather
phenomena. This encompasses integrated hydrological and flood modeling,
copula-based analysis of extreme events, and the development of innovative
frequency analysis tools, mostly tailored to address the specific
considerations pertinent to the regions of Singapore and Southeast Asia. 2. Climate Change Impact Assessment and Adaptative
Planning I am also interested in exploring the repercussions of
climate change and developing strategic plans for effective adaptation. This
mainly involves the development of advanced climate data assimilation
methods, regional climate downscaling techniques, bias-correction methods and
risk assessment techniques to strategically address the challenges posed by
climate change. 3. Water Resources and Environmental Systems Planning My expertise extends to devising innovative methodologies
for enabling cost-effective management strategies for water resources and
environmental systems amidst complexities and uncertainties. This includes
the development of advanced inexact optimization techniques, along with
simulation-based optimization methods tailored for urban sustainable
infrastructure design and groundwater remediation management. AVAILABLE POSITIONS PhD positions under NTU scholarship may be available. Any
interested PhD applicants please: (1) Apply through the official PhD
application portal by indicating me as your potential supervisor, or (2) Contact Dr. Qin directly through email xsqin{at}ntu.edu.sg. |
