Paulo Tarso Sanches de Oliveira

I was born in Brazil in 1985 and received both my BSc degrees in Environmental Engineer (2009) and MSc degrees in Environmental Technology - Water Resources (2011) at the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul (UFMS), Campo Grande - MS, Brazil. My Ph.D. in Hydraulics and Sanitary Engineering was obtained in 2014 at the São Carlos School of Engineering, University of São Paulo (EESC-USP), São Carlos - SP, Brazil. I also worked as a visiting researcher (2013-2014) at the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA-SWRC) and at the University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ, USA. I joined the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul (UFMS) as Professor in Hydrology and Water Resources in January 2016. My investigations have led to a better understanding of the mechanisms of hydrological processes, including the interaction among hydrology, human activities, and ecosystems services. I have worked with the development and improvement of models and data analysis by using hydrometeorological data at varying spatial scales (plots, hillslope, catchment, and continental), through laboratory, experimental, and remote sensing-based research. I have been also conducting studies on water security that involves analyzing the interaction of climate and land use and land cover changes on the hydrological processes. Our studies aim to ensure the soil and water conservation, conciliate the water-food-energy nexus, and provide a more resilient infrastructure based in sustainable drainage systems. - See more at: http://orcid.org/0000-0003-2806-0083#sthash.cTPj2sRM.dpuf (Source: Lattes Curriculum)
