Hi, I'm Ashish Kondal, a Ph.D. Candidate in Civil Engineering at Washington State University.

I am an applied researcher with over 6 years of extensive experience in earth system modeling and data science. My specialization lies in assessing and integrating seasonal climate forecasts, with a particular focus on multi-model ensembles, to enhance decision-making processes.

Research Interests:

• Seasonal climate forecasting for decision support in the agriculture and water management sector

• Coupled crop-hydrology modeling 

• Agent-based modeling for water markets

• Weather/climate risk assessment and management in crop production

• Food-Energy-Water nexus (food and nutritional insecurity)

• Air quality

• Data assimilation and integration into models 

• Spatial data analytics and visualization
