Environmental geophysics, geostatistics, and hydrogeology
PhD, Environmental Engineering and Science, Clemson University – 2014
Dr. Oware’s research interest is in the application of geophysical tools for hydrogeological and agricultural applications. The group employs geophysical methods, such as electrical resistivity (ER), electromagnetic induction, and ground penetrating radar (GPR) to non-invasively characterize subsurface parameters and processes. Our major research objectives are in the development of innovative geostatistical inverse modeling strategies to advance the characterization/monitoring of aquifer hydraulic properties and flow and transport processes in highly heterogeneous/fractured aquifer systems, through numerical, laboratory, and field-scale experiments.
