Dr. Anthony J. Parolari is an Associate Professor in the Department of Civil, Construction and Environmental Engineering at Marquette University. He holds a Ph.D. in Civil and Environmental Engineering from MIT (2012) and has previously taught courses in engineering computing, urban hydrology, and ecohydrology.
- Education:
- Ph.D., 2012, Civil and Environmental Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
- M.S.E., 2005, Environmental Engineering, University of Michigan
- B.S.E., 2004, Civil Engineering, University of Michigan
His research focuses on the interactions between hydrology and ecosystems, particularly in urban and engineered environments. Key areas include watershed hydrology, ecohydrology, stormwater management, nutrient cycling, and climate change impacts on urban water systems. He develops quantitative models to link hydrologic variability to ecosystem processes, aiming to improve urban water infrastructure design and real-time control technologies.
Analysis of his recent publications reveals trends in machine learning for flood prediction, nutrient management in green infrastructure, and ecohydrological responses to climate variability. His work often integrates experimental data with theoretical models to address water quality and quantity challenges.
Dr. Parolari leads grants from the National Science Foundation (NSF), Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT), and Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District (MMSD), focusing on sustainable stormwater solutions and real-time control systems. He collaborates with institutions like MIT, University of Michigan, and Duke University on research initiatives.
His team at Marquette’s Water Quality Center investigates soil biogeochemistry in engineered ecosystems, leveraging field studies and simulations to optimize stormwater wetlands and green roofs.
