Brief Introduction of Professor Ana P. Barros
Dr. Ana P. Barros is Donald Biggar Willett Chair of Engineering and Professor and Head of Civil and Environmental Engineering at UIUC. She is also Edmund T. Pratt, Jr. School Distinguished Professor Emerita at Duke University. Her primary research interests are in Hydrology, Hydrometeorology and Environmental Physics with a focus on water cycle studies including clouds and precipitation, multiscale land-atmosphere interactions, water prediction, and operational forecasting and risk assessment of extreme events and water-related hazards. Her research relies on intensive field and laboratory experiments, satellite-based remote sensing, computational modeling, and environmental informatics. Dr. Barros is the past President of the Hydrology Section of the American Geophysical Union, she was Chair of Atmospheric and Hydrospheric Sciences of AAAS, and she served as a Member of the Council of American Meteorological Society. She served as Chief Editor of the Journal of Hydrometeorology, and she is an Editor of AGU Advances and PNAS NEXUS. Prof. Barros was elected to the UCAR Board of Trustees in 2022 and she serves in the ASCE Industry Leadership Council. She is a Fellow of AGU, AMS, ASCE and AAAS, a senior member of IEEE, and a member of the National Academy of Engineering.
