• Description: Dr. Alain Pietroniro currently holds the position of Professor and Canada Research Chair in Sustainable Water Systems at the University of Calgary’s Schulich School of Engineering. Prior to his academic appointment, Dr. Pietroniro served as the Executive Director of the National Hydrological Service (NHS) for the government of Canada. His research is primarily focused on improving, developing, and evaluating hydrological models, remote sensing and GIS applications in hydrology. Dr. Alain Pietroniro is an internationally recognized expert in hydrology and sustainable water systems, who has spent almost three decades studying various aspects of water resources engineering.
