Seyed Amir Rezvani

Doctoral student at the Department of Sustainable Development, Environmental Science and Engineering (SEED), KTH Royal Institute of Technology.

Specialization: Land and Water Resources Engineering
Research Focus: Integrated Water Management Applying Digital Twin Technology

Supervised by Associate Professor and Director of WaterCentre@KTH, Zahra Kalantari.

Current research projects:

- PUDDLE JUMP: Promoting Upstream-Downstream Directed Linkages in the Environment: “Joined-Up” Management Perspectives' funded by Formas.

- LandEX: Improving Landscape resilience by integrating measures to adapt and mitigate hydrological EXtremes

I am engaged in research projects aimed at enhancing waterbodies for flood and drought mitigation, biodiversity enhancement, and ecosystem services. My work involves developing and utilizing digital twins to optimize hydrological connectivity, evaluate waterbody placements, and assess the impacts of wetlands on water regulation. Through this, I aim to address local hydrological challenges and contribute to a broader understanding of watershed dynamics by evaluating both upstream and downstream effects and providing practical insights. Additionally, these projects include designing nature-based solutions (NBS) to improve climate resilience and collaborating with stakeholders to integrate local measures and water retention techniques through simulation strategies.

Research Interests:

• Sustainable Urban Planning & Design
• Impact of Climate Change on Water Resource Management
• Hydrological Modeling and Simulation
• Community-based Water Management Practices
• Mapping techniques for comprehensive analysis of water flow patterns
• Wetland dynamics and ecological significance
