    Dr. Her is an assistant professor of hydrology in the Agricultural and Biological Engineering (ABE) Department and the Tropical Research and Education Center (TREC) at the University of Florida (UF). He specializes in hydrologic and water quality modeling, best management practices including agricultural conservation and urban low impact development practices, uncertainty analysis, and geospatial data analysis. His research focuses on quantifying the effects of climate variability and sea-level rise on agriculture and water resources and developing mitigation and adaptation strategies for the global and regional scale changes.
