Gopal Krishan is a Scientist for National Institute of Hydrology, Roorkee, India. He received his PhD. in Soil Science and Water Management from Dr. Y.S. Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry, India in 2001. He focused his doctoral research on development of biofertilizer technology. Dr. Gopal is a member of the ISRS and AWRA. He has developed skills in Isotope Hydro-meteorology and the work was presented in several International and national forums in India as well as abroad, hydro-geochemistry and water quality studies. He has also imparted training on instrumentation at IIRS-ISRO and on Isotope Hydrology in various training programme at NIH. Dr. Gopal has research expertise in applying isotope in air moisture studies for resolving sources of air moisture, monitoring south-west monsoon, identifying recharge sources, developed natural baseline for water quality, identifying zones for sub-marine groundwater discharge in coastal areas. He is the Member of International Advisory Board –International Journal of Earth Sciences and Engineering, International Journal of Applied Environmental Science, Editorial board of International Journal – Current World Environment. He has published more than 125 research papers in international/national journals and conferences, 1 book, 11 book chapters, newsletter and 7 reports.
Isotope applications in SW monsoon monitoring, tracking recharge source, surface-water groundwater interaction, studying emerging organic contaminant in groundwater in urban areas.
