Dr Majdi Mansour is a civil engineer by training and specialised in the field of groundwater modelling. His work focuses on the development and application of numerical solutions to study groundwater water resources and aquifer protection under changing climate conditions. His research interest includes the simulation of groundwater flows to pumped boreholes, he has also contributed to the development of the British mainland national scale recharge model. He is currently investigating the role of groundwater on landslides and coastal erosion. Since 2022, Majdi is a member of the Quarterly Journal of Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology editorial board.
