Personal profile
Research interests
Dr. Clement Alo's research integrates climate modeling, terrestrial ecosystem modeling, hydrological modeling, and observational data for atmospheric and land surface variables to examine the evolution of Earth’s biosphere and water resources in response to climate variability and change. A key practical focus of my prediction studies is generating science based information on environmental vulnerability associated with global change for effective environmental management.
Scholarly Interests
Regional Climate and Ecosystem Modeling
Coupled Surface Water-Groundwater Modeling
Land-Atmosphere Interactions
Surface Hydrology
Hydroclimatology
Ecohydrological Impacts of Climate Variability and Change
Teaching
Planet Earth
Introductory undergraduate level course focusing on processes and interactions of the components of the earth system.
Earth Systems Science
Graduate course that provides a descriptive and quantitative introduction to processes and interactions within and between earth’s atmosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and lithosphere.
Hydroclimatology
Graduate/upper level undergraduate course that focuses on the relations
and interactions between climate and the hydrologic cycle, and how the
climate system causes spatial and temporal variations in the hydrologic cycle.
Climatology
Upper level undergraduate course that focuses on Earth's climate system
with an emphasis on understanding the physical processes and dynamics of the atmosphere, climate variations across space, and climatic change and variability through time.
Hydrology
Undergraduate level course that introduces students to fundamental
hydrologic processes operating in the atmosphere, surface water and
groundwater systems, including how humans interact with these systems
