Sujan Koirala

Dr. Sujan Koirala is a Researcher at the Max-Planck-Institute for Biogeochemistry, Department of Biogeochemical Integration (BGI). His work focuses on Model-Data Integration of carbon and water cycles, developing process-based models to quantify uncertainties in structural and observational data. Key research interests include global water and carbon budget dynamics, groundwater's role in ecosystems, and the quantification of land-atmosphere CO2 exchange. He contributes to frameworks like the SINDBAD model and ESMValTool for climate and biogeochemical modeling. His recent studies address interannual variability in ecosystem productivity, machine learning applications in hydrology, and the impacts of climate change on water limitations.

Education details are not explicitly provided, but his research spans biogeochemistry, hydrology, and climate science. Collaborations involve global hydrological models and satellite data integration. He is affiliated with the Model-Data Integration research group and has published extensively on carbon cycle modeling, groundwater dynamics, and disturbance regimes in forest ecosystems.
