Thèmes de recherche

Professor Neuman is one of the world's leading groundwater hydrologists.

Dr. Neuman's fields of specialization are subsurface hydrology and contaminant transport. He has made seminal contributions to the areas of pumping test design and analysis, flow in multilayered geologic media, finite element simulation of subsurface flow and transport, estimation of aquifer parameters, fractured rock hydrology, peat hydrology, geostatistics, and stochastic analysis of heterogeneous geologic media.

Prix et récompenses

He is a member of the US National Academy of Engineering, a Fellow of the American Geophysical Union and the Geological Society of America. He holds an honorary professorship at the University of Nanjing in China. He received numerous awards from professional societies and is a former Birdsall Distinguished Lecturer of the GSA.

He earned the American Geophysical Union's prestigious Robert E. Horton Award in 1969 as a result of his published applications of finite element computer simulation technologies to the analysis of the multi-aquifer systems.

He also won the C.V. Theis Award from the American Institute of Hydrology for major contributions to groundwater hydrology.

2003 Robert E. Horton Medal (American Geophysical Union - AGU)
