Technician |
With over 10 years experience in the field of hydraulics, Don
René is the technician at the Laboratory of Hydraulic and Environmental Engineering,
supporting our teaching, research and consulting with the best developments
of laboratory and field measuring
techniques. |
Civil Engineer, MSc |
He is interested in the field of Socio-hydrology, focusing in the
interactions between rivers and rural communities. Our current study area is
the Carampangue river and the communities at Arauco, Carampangue and Ramadillas. |
Civil Engineer |
He is interested in the field of fluvial sediment transport. Currently, Nacho
focus on the effects of river temperature on sediment motion. |
