Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSopan Patil is a Senior Lecturer at Bangor University with over a decade of experience in surface water hydrology, specializing in catchment-scale modelling and statistical analysis. His research spans natural flood management, climate and land-use impacts on river flood risk, streamflow prediction in ungauged basins, coupled hydrological-ecological functions, and water quality modelling. He leads teaching and administration across multiple catchment and GIS modules, directs an international Trans-Atlantic Masters programme, and supervises a diverse research group tackling applied climate and ecosystem challenges. Sopan’s postdoctoral and doctoral work in the US produced transferable hydrological models and a publicly available model (EXP-HYDRO), reflecting a strong emphasis on reproducible, open science. He contributes to the field through editorial roles at JAWRA and Scientific Reports and service on international committees, bridging academic research with policy-relevant flood and water management. Notably, his portfolio combines large-sample continental analyses with hands-on toolkit development for local flood management decisions in Wales.
