报告人简介：

Hubert Savenije is Emeritus Professor of Hydrology at the Delft University of Technology,where he was the head of the Water Resources Section. He published more than 250 scientific articles in the fields of hydrology,estuarine hydraulics and water resource management. In 2005 he published a book on"Salinity and Tides in Alluvial Estuaries"(second & revised edition freely downloadable at www.salinityandtides.com).  From 2004-2016 He was chief executive editor of Hydrology and Earth System Sciences (HESS). He is Past-President of Hydrological Sciences of the European Geosciences Union (EGU). From 2013-2017 he was President of IAHS (the International Association for Hydrological Sciences). He has worked as hydrologist and water resources engineer in many different parts of the world and particularly in Africa,Asia and South America.

In 2008 he received the Henry Darcy Medal of the EGU (European Geosciences Union)"for outstanding contributions to Hydrology and Water Resources Management". In 2014 he was elected'Fellow of the AGU'(American Geophysical Union)"for groundbreaking contributions to our understanding of hydrologic process organization at the macro-scale". In 2015 he was awarded the Alexander von Humboldt Medal by the EGU"for outstanding research in developing regions for the benefit of people and society in the field of hydrology and water resources". In 2017 he received the International Award of the AGU  "for making an outstanding contribution to furthering the Earth and space sciences and using science for the benefit of society in developing nations”. In 2020 He received the Dooge Medal of the IAHS"for scientific excellence in Hydrology"

His scientific work has covered all aspects of the hydrological cycle,including atmospheric circulation and moisture recycling,evaporation,rainfall-runoff,catchment hydrology,river hydraulics,estuarine hydraulics,saltwater intrusion,and water resources management. His approach is holistic in search of simple mathematical descriptions of system behaviour. He advocates a new theory of ecosystem-based hydrology as part of a living and evolving biosphere.
