About Mehdi

Dr. Mehdi Khaki is an Associate Professor in the School of Engineering at the University of Newcastle's College of Engineering, Science and Environment. He earned a Bachelor of Civil Engineering and a Master of Civil Engineering from the University of Tehran, Iran, completing the master's in 2014. Khaki obtained his PhD from Curtin University between 2015 and 2018, with a thesis entitled 'Integration Frameworks for Merging Satellite Remote Sensing Observations with Hydrological Model Outputs.' His research specializes in data assimilation, geodesy, and satellite remote sensing, focusing on integrating geodetic and remote sensing techniques with hydrological models to advance hydrological understanding across scales from medium- to large-scale river basins to global extents. He employs satellite products such as GRACE terrestrial water storage, radar altimetry, and soil moisture data to investigate inland surface water variations, coastal water level changes, gravity anomalies, and improvements to land hydrological models. Studies encompass global water cycles, water storage changes in regions including Australia, Bangladesh, South America, Africa, Iran, the Nile Basin, and Lake Victoria, analyzing anthropogenic and climatic impacts on water compartments and hydrological droughts.
