معرفی
Dr. Victor Bense is an Associate Professor in Hydrology and Environmental Hydraulics at Wageningen University & Research. His expertise spans groundwater flow dynamics, permafrost hydrogeology, and numerical modeling of subsurface systems. He leads interdisciplinary projects addressing climate change impacts, groundwater management, and coral reef health in the Caribbean.
Research interests include groundwater extraction effects, thermal regimes, and sustainable resource management. He has supervised multiple PhD candidates, including studies on managed aquifer recharge in Bangladesh, hydrogeological characterization of Gorongosa National Park, and permafrost dynamics in Arctic regions. His work integrates field data, numerical modeling, and environmental tracers to address complex hydrogeological challenges.
Key contributions include modeling groundwater systems in Iran's mining regions, analyzing Caribbean coral reef water composition, and developing tools for basin-scale groundwater availability projections. Bense actively engages in knowledge exchange, contributing to media discussions on water scarcity and sustainable policy development.
