Prize: Fellowship awarded competitively
Description
I have been awarded the Royal Academy of Engineering/Leverhulme Trust Senior Research Fellowship. This competition is open to all engineering disciplines and only 7 individuals across UK receive this award annually. The focus of my Fellowship is on "Quantifying the effects of salt precipitation on evaporation from soil". This topic is relevant to various environmental, engineering, and hydrological processes including crop production, soil salinization which is a global problem, land-atmosphere interaction, and preservation of building materials.
