Sujan Pal

Sujan Pal is a Hydroclimate Scientist at Argonne National Laboratory, focusing on hydrometeorology, hydroclimatology, and land-atmosphere interactions through numerical modeling and field experiments. He serves as an associate mentor for multiple observational systems in the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) user facility and monitors environmental data at Argonne Testbed for Multiscale Observational Science (ATMOS).

• Ph.D., University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (2017-2021)
• M.S., The University of Arizona (2015-2017)
• B.E., Jadavpur University (2010-2014)

His research spans hydrometeorological modeling, urban climate impacts, and machine learning applications in environmental science. He leads high-resolution flood simulations and contributes to the DOE-funded CROCUS project studying urban climate change in Chicago.

Recent publications highlight his work on convection-permitting climate modeling, extreme rainfall dynamics, and flood risk assessment across South America, the U.S. Northeast, and Argentina. His methodologies integrate field data with advanced computational tools.

• ARM Service Award 2025
• Argonne Commercialization Excellence Award 2024
• Argonne IMPACT Awards (2024, 2023, 2022)

He actively collaborates with national user facilities and contributes to spatiotemporal modeling of water-related hazards as an Associate Editor for Frontiers in Water.
