Aakash Ahamed
Staff, Department of Geophysics - Knight Program
Research Assistant, Geophysics Faculty ProgramsBioAakash Ahamed (BS, with honors, Franklin and Marshall College; MSc, Boston College; PhD, Stanford University) is a remote sensing scientist developing methods for satellite, airborne, and ground-based instruments to measure components of the water and carbon cycles. His research has applications in water resources and natural hazards as well as agricultural and forest systems. His doctoral work focused on developing satellite-based models of groundwater mass changes in California's aquifers. Aakash previously worked as a support scientist in the Hydrological Sciences Lab at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, where he constructed satellite-based models of flood and landslide hazards. He has also developed remote sensing software at Ceres Imaging, a successful precision agriculture start up based in Silicon Valley, served as a National Geographic Explorer, and interned as a GIS analyst at the World Wildlife Fund for Nature in Washington, DC.

Ammar Alali
Ph.D. Student in Energy Resources Engineering, admitted Autumn 2023
BioI'm Ammar, a PhD student in Energy Science Engineering who is working with Hamdi Tchelepi. I got my master's degree from Stanford in 2018, and since then I have been working with Aramco as part of the development teams of two projects for Underground Gas Storage and CCUS to be developed for the first time in Saudi Arabia. My masters research was focused on numerical reservoir simulation of capillary-dominated flow in matrix-fracture systems using interface conditions. In my free time, I enjoy reading modern poetry and watching classic films.
