Email: [email protected]
Jillian started with the lab as an undergraduate intern during the summer of 2022 where she used Sentinel-3 OLCI imagery to model cyanobacteria densities in Muskegon Lake. Jillian subsequently continued supporting research projects as an intern/technician including the Danube River watershed SWAT+ model and quantifying water clarity in Michigan’s inland lakes using remote sensing. She graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Environmental and Sustainability Studies in December 2022, and will begin her Master’s in Biology with an emphasis in Aquatic Science in August 2023.
Jillian is an alumna of the NASA DEVELOP spring 2023 program.
Jamshid Jalali
Graduate Research Assistant

Jamshid Jalali is a graduate research assistant and joined the lab in January 2023. His research includes water quality assessment with remote sensing data and machine learning models. Jamshid is also conducting hydrological simulations of the Danube River Basin using the SWAT+ model to understand the impacts of climate change and agricultural land use change on water scarcity in the region.
Before joining AWRI, Jamshid conducted research at the Water and Waste Water Institute, Civil Engineering Department, Isfahan University of Technology. His research primarily centered around evaluating the impacts of climate change and human activities on variations in runoff. He employed various methodologies such as hydrological simulation using the SWAT model, a data-driven approach using LS-SVM, and climate elasticity analysis. His research specifically aimed to distinguish the effects of climate change from those of human activities on runoff reduction in the Zayandeh-Roud Dam watershed, located in central Iran.
