About Hydrological and Ecological Engineering

Hydrological and Ecological Engineering combines environmental and hydrological engineering to research the complex interface between water and the environment. The Hydrological and Ecological Engineering Group (HydroEco) is a team of tenured faculty, post-doctoral fellows, PhD, Masters, and Bachelors (Honours) engineering students at the University of Canterbury. HydroEco members have conducted research worldwide in diverse yet interrelated topics such as hydrology, water resources, erosion control, integrated catchment management, stormwater, irrigation, flood prediction, mine drainage, engineered treatment wetlands and biofuels.
