Dr Basant Yadav Ph.D. (Civil Engineering), is a postdoctoral fellow in Water Science Institute of Cranfield University (UK), working on groundwater quality and quantity management. Specific focus of Dr Yadav's research includes flow and transport processes in ground water and in the vadose zone; hydroinformatics; managed aquifer recharge. Dr. Yadav's research emphasizes the Integration of Experimental, Numerical and data based modeling approaches for the better and efficient management of the groundwater quantity and quality. His work uses a range of numerical, statistical, and stochastic modeling approaches and experimental work to analyze the fate and transport of contaminant in saturated and unsaturated zones. Dr. Yadav is an agricultural engineer and received his M.Tech in hydrology jointly from Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee (India) and Technical University Stuttgart (Germany). He did his PhD from Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (India) on 'Application of soft computing techniques in water quality and quantity modeling'. He was awarded prestigious National Postdoctoral fellowship (NPDF) in 2017 to work on his postdoctoral project in Indian Institute of Science Bangalore, India. He has received scholarships like DAAD (Germany), MHRD (India) for his masters and PhD work. He has authored/co-authored more than fifteen research publications in high impact journals such as journal of Hydrology, Hydrological Science, Journal of Environmental Engineering, Journal of Hydrologic Engineering, and Measurement Journal. Dr. Yadav has presented his work in highly reputed meeting like AGU (December- 2014, USA), AOGS (August-2017, Singapore), JpGU (June-2018, Japan). He is a member of the American Geophysical Union (AGU), Asia Oceania Geosciences Society (AOGS) and Japan Geoscience Union (JpGU). He is the reviewer of high repute journals like Science of Total Environment, Hydrological processes, Journal of Hydrology, Journal of Hydrologic Engineering, Water Resources Management, ISH Journal of Hydraulic Engineering and Journal of Hydroinformatics.
