Probal Saha has completed his Ph.D. in Water Resources Engineering at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. He is a Water Resources and Hydraulic Modeling Engineer with extensive experience in hydrologic and hydraulic (H&H) modeling, climate resilience planning, and watershed management. Skilled in advanced modeling tools including InfoWorks ICM, SWMM, VIC, ArcSWAT, and Delft3D for stormwater, sewer, and river systems. Proven track record in developing and calibrating hydraulic models, assessing pump station capacity, and simulating climate and sea-level rise impacts. Experienced in erosion and sediment transport analysis, environmental flow assessments, and transboundary water resource planning. Adept at integrating field data with model architecture to improve prediction accuracy and support sustainable water management strategies.

The research has been conducted by C3ER and supported by WaterAid Bangladesh. The purpose of the project was to develop a policy brief and Water Management Plan for the South-West coastal region of Bangladesh through an exchange visit in India.
The research has been conducted by C3ER and supported by United Nations Development Programme, Bangladesh. The objective of the project was to conduct the environmental flow assessment through hydrodynamic modeling.
The research has been conducted by IWFM and received funding from the European Union Seventh Framework Programme. The objective of the project is to assess the changes in the inundation patterns in cyclonic storms’ at the GBM delta due to sea-level rise.
