PNNL

Dr. Fred Zhang is a research scientist for the Subsurface Computational Hydrology Team within the Hydrology Group at PNNL. Prior to joining PNNL in 2001, he completed his PhD studying land resource science, soil physics and vadose zone hydrology and later was a post-doctorate investigating the fingering phenomenon of dense nonaqueous phase liquid in the saturated porous media. At PNNL, Dr. Zhang serves as a computational hydrogeologist specializing in development and application of simulation and monitoring tools for use in characterization and interpretation of complex flow systems, predictive modeling of fluid flow and contaminant transport in the vadose zone and saturated zone, and field monitoring of natural and/or engineered systems.
