This project in my R&D area won a national competition for applied research. It is the design and implementation of an early mudflows alert system based on geological studies and computational modeling of flood flows for disaster prevention. I wrote the grant proposal and was the project’s technical team lead.
Total Grant Funding: $28K
Total Project Budget: $48K
The project was showcased in Umbrales Tvperú on 2015-10-16, a national TV program focused on research, and in the interview I explained its relevance to the “El Niño” phenomenon.
