Hydraulic Engineer
Bureau of Reclamation, Colorado, United States
Benjamin Abban is currently a Hydraulics Engineer with the Bureau of Reclamation. He is a fellow of the National Science Foundation’s Geoinformatics for Environmental and Energy Modeling and Prediction (GEEMaP) program and holds a Ph.D. in Water Resources Engineering from the University of Tennessee Knoxville and a graduate certificate in informatics from the University of Iowa. He has been involved in the development of several hydraulic and hydrologic models since 2007. He is currently a co-developer of SRH-W, focusing on representation of watershed hydrologic/hydraulic processes in terrestrial, in-stream, and groundwater domains, and the exchange of fluxes between them. Over his career, Ben has been involved in numerous projects on watershed hydrologic and hydraulic analyses. For his Ph.D., Benjamin leveraged his background to study the effects of changing land use and surface roughness patterns on water and sediment fluxes from the hillslope to the watershed scale.
