Muhammad Islam- Freelance Hydrogeologist/Groundwater Modeller

Description

A freelance Groundwater Modeller & Hydrogeologist serving businesses in Canada, USA, Middle East and Southeast Asia for the last 16 years. From time to time, you may need to build groundwater models that you do not have time or personnel to handle. How about you like to have a good groundwater modeller on call without adding to your permanent payroll? Because I am not affiliated with an agent, and my overhead is low, my rate is very reasonable.
Services offered: Environmental Assessment I've setup numerous groundwater models ranging from simple two dimensional to complex three dimensional fully featured models to accommodate allocated budget, need and available information. These models were successfully applied to quantify available water resources, determine local and regional water balance, and their relationship of how changing one or more components of the balance can impact the quality, quantity and location of other components and the environment. This includes identifying the zone of influences of past, present and future natural and man induced activities affecting our hydrogeological systems. This information is the key to prepare integrated water resources management plan, and execute important decisions to maintain environmental and hydrogeological balance and sustainable development. Identifying Problem Sources And Potential Threats To Water Resources Another key area of my expertise is to identify and quantify problems in local and regional water resources and delineate potential threats. These include delineating wellhead protection areas, defining Time of Travel (ToT) zones, Surface to Aquifer Advection Time (SAAT) zones and Surface to Well Advection Time (SWAT) zones. This is very important in environmental remediation and protection and sustainable development. Different provincial and federal guidelines have setup different hydrogeological standards to safeguard the environment. I can efficiently contribute to those guidelines and utilize numerical models to ensure that the guidelines are being followed. Predicting Impact On Hydrogeological System Different natural and man induced activities influence our hydrogeologic cycle and adversely affect our available water resources. Most common of these activities are pumping wells, irrigation, open-pit and underground mining, waste landfills, underground storage of chemicals and other radio-active substances, sea level rise etc. I can efficiently identify the area of influence of these water extraction sources and quantify the threats of different contaminants to our aquifer. I can also reliably predict future conditions of our resources both qualitatively and quantitatively. Database Development, Querying, Analyses And Consistency Checking Efficient data organization, management and querying is very important in proper utilization of available data. I can create hydrogeological database, organize data input, storage and write extraction queries that will efficiently manage your available data. I am an expert user of borehole data management system of Viewlog. This includes, creating Viewlog project and linking borehole log database to it to efficiently analyse borehole logs in 3D geo-explorer, pick geology on sections and create three dimensional geologic models.
