•Developed a novel and spatiotemporally robust water quality model to predict stream water quality across the U.S. Atlantic Coast for prestigious (CAREER) research project funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF). The work is submitted to Science of the Total Environment, and is under review (with minor revisions). • Quantified the controls of watershed land uses, climatic and biogeochemical drivers on stream water quality across the U.S. Atlantic Coast for efficient ecosystem management leveraging the platforms of MATLAB, Python, R, and ArcGIS. The works have been published in GeoHealth (AGU publication) and Journal of Hydrologic Engineering (ASCE publication). •Prepared Annual Project Report for CAREER research project funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF). •Processed and analyzed (in MATLAB, Python, R, and ArcGIS) big-data of water quality. •Supervised undergraduate intern student to process and analyze stream water quality data.
