Dr Nejat Zeydalinejad
Postdoctoral Research Fellow
Engineering
I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Centre for Resilience in Environment, Water and Waste (CREWW), University of Exeter. I successfully completed Phase 1 of the Groundwater Infiltration Risk Map (GWIRM) project for sewer networks, utilising the MODFLOW groundwater model and geospatial technology, with a focus on the Lower River Otter Water Body in the UK.
I completed my Ph.D. in Hydrogeology in 2020, focusing on the impact of climate change on various water systems such as karst, alluvial aquifers, and surface water. During my master's studies, I conducted research on the evaluation of groundwater potential in karst terrains, including hydrogeophysical and hydrogeochemical assessments.
In terms of professional experience, I have worked in groundwater resources management, offering expertise in diverse areas. This includes advising on the implementation of environmental monitoring strategies, characterising groundwater resources, developing sustainability programs for groundwater resources, selecting water well sites, analysing the impacts of geotechnical projects on karst water resources, and determining foundation depth in urban districts.
