Process-aware intelligence for water, climate, and infrastructure.

At New Mexico State University, the Abeshu Hydrosystems Intelligence Lab studies how connected hydrologic systems behave under change—building process-aware prediction, environmental data systems, scientific AI, and decision tools for water security that past conditions no longer describe.

About the Lab

Who we are.

We are a hydrosystems research lab in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at New Mexico State University.

What we do.

We study water futures in a changing world and develop predictive models, data systems, and decision-support tools for resilient and equitable water management.

How we do it.

Our approach combines theory, physical understanding, Earth observation, AI, and decision science to study the adaptive complexity of water systems and support better decisions.

Research focus.

We connect prediction, adaptation, infrastructure resilience, and equity across watersheds, regions, and Earth-system scales.

New and prospective lab members can read the Abeshu Hydrosystems Intelligence Lab handbook for advising expectations, onboarding, workflows, and lab practices.

Funded PhD opportunity: Prospective doctoral students interested in AI-enabled water systems research are encouraged to connect in Fall 2026 for Spring 2027 admission. View Opportunity
