Thank you to everyone who made this year’s CIROH Science Meeting so impactful.

Over 200 participants joined us to share their work, ask questions and collaborate on the most pressing challenges and developments in water prediction.

From lightning talks and parallel track presentations to federal office hours and field trips, participation and collaboration shaped this year’s conference.

Congratulations to everyone who has been here since the beginning of CIROH. We are so excited for the next five years!

This summer, researchers Dr. Mukesh Kumar, Dr. Mohamed Fathi Said and Dr. Wei Zhang set out to tackle the challenge of predicting the rapid transition from dry to wet conditions.

Said, a professor at Florida Gulf Coast University, and Zhang, a professor at Utah State University, were hosted as visiting scholars by Kumar at The University of Alabama. Together, they coded, discussed water science and trained models on hydrologic whiplash using UA’s access to high-performance computing for the complex, data-heavy subject in front of them.

By the end of the summer, they’d developed a presentation, two forthcoming white papers and a strong bond created through collaboration.

“Of course I will stick with them,” said Said. “I can’t find brilliant people like Wei and Mukesh anywhere else.”

“To interact with these people, like Mohamed, Mukesh and the other scientists here, it’s an amazing experience for me,” said Zhang. “It meant a lot. And maybe we will become lifelong friends.”
