Haley Kujawa

Haley Kujawa is a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Department of Biology, University of Southern Denmark (SDU). She is affiliated with the Aqua-NbS research center, focusing on environmental modeling to address water quality and carbon storage challenges under climate change. Her work emphasizes stakeholder engagement to ensure model results are practically applicable for policy and decision-making.

Her research employs tools like the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) to quantify nutrient runoff from agricultural landscapes and design management strategies. She has collaborated with governmental organizations, NGOs, and landowners to enhance model relevance. Current projects involve developing locally adaptable environmental models to evaluate aquatic nature-based solutions (NbS) across climate scenarios.

Key research areas include watershed modeling, climate adaptation strategies, and interdisciplinary approaches to integrate models into policy frameworks. Her publications span hydrology, environmental management, and uncertainty analysis in climate-sensitive systems.

Dr. Kujawa’s work bridges scientific rigor and real-world application, aiming to provide actionable insights for sustainable land and water management. She contributes to the Aqua-NbS center’s interdisciplinary efforts to create land-management scenarios tailored for policy contexts.
