Alexandre Martinez
Civil Engineering
University of California-Irvine
Alexandre Martinez is a Ph.D. student from the University of California, Irvine. He focuses is mainly drought impact on society, looking primarly at drought impact on nutrition. His research associates hydro-climatology with plants physiology, economics, and public policy.
Alexandre Martinez is very interested in translated his research into something directly usable for decision makers and is looking forward to further collaborate with public policy leaders. You can contact him at TheClimateVR.com.

Preparing data for climate change analysis using MATLAB part of Teaching Computation with MATLAB:MATLAB Workshop 2019:Activities
In this activity, we mainly learn the importance of analyzing data format before applying models to it, with the examples of drought. We use monthly precipitation from the Climate Research Unit (gridded data) and ...
Calculating and using Unit Hydrograph using Matlab part of Teaching Computation with MATLAB:MATLAB Workshop 2018:Activities
We are using the concept of Unit Hydrograph to understand the behavior of a watershed following a rain event and to calculate the runoff following any rainfall event.
