Geographic Information System 8. Introduction to MATLAB 9. Advanced Numerical Methods Skills Tools: Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, ORACLE -9i MS- ACCESS, Adobe Photoshop, DB2 , MS PROJECT 2003 Languages: C, MATLAB, COBOL, JCL, VSAM, CICS Operating Systems: Windows98, 2000, NT, Xp Packages: MathCAD, AutoCAD, Arc View Gis3.2, 3.3, Arc Gis8.1, QUAL2K, HSSM, HEC-RAS, HEC-HMS Projects: • Used QUAL2K to do Sediment Oxygen Demand Variations in the Mississippi River • Prepared a permit application for a surface storage tank used for storing Hydrocarbon. The report also involves evaluating uncertainties in case of a spill using HSSM. (Hydrocarbon Spill Screening Model). HSSM model was used to predict the peak concentrations of LNAPL reaching the regulated boundary of 150 m from the center of the storage tank. • Integrated Watershed Modeling of Amite River Basin • Design of Levees in the Mississippi River • Environmental Impact Assessment of Carcinogenic releases from chemical industries in Louisiana using Geographic Information System(Arc view GIS) Awards: 1.
