Rate My Professor Subhasis Giri

Subhasis Giri, Ph.D., serves as Assistant Professor-Tenure System in the Department of Biosystems and Agricultural Engineering at Michigan State University, where he directs the Hydro Water Quality Lab. He obtained his Ph.D. in Biosystems and Agricultural Engineering from Michigan State University in 2013, M.S. in Biological and Agricultural Engineering from Texas A&M University in 2008, and B.S. in Agricultural Engineering from Orissa University of Agriculture and Technology in 2005. Giri's research specializations encompass watershed hydrology, water quality, climate change, water sustainability, and ecohydrology. His investigations center on the interplay of anthropogenic activities, hydrological systems, climate, and ecology in both natural and managed watersheds, with a focus on developing strategies for water quality improvement through best management practices.

Giri joined Michigan State University in January 2025 as part of the Agricultural Resiliency Program, aimed at enhancing water quality in Michigan, including efforts related to harmful algal blooms in Western Lake Erie. His prolific publication record includes key works such as 'Understanding the relationship of land uses and water quality in Twenty First Century: A review' (Journal of Environmental Management, 2016), 'Water quality prospective in Twenty First Century: Status of water quality in major river basins, contemporary strategies and impediments: A review' (Environmental Pollution, 2021), 'Evaluation of targeting methods for implementation of best management practices in the Saginaw River Watershed' (Journal of Environmental Management, 2012), 'Analysis of best management practice effectiveness and spatiotemporal variability based on different targeting strategies' (Hydrological Processes, 2014), and 'Climate change vulnerability assessment and adaptation strategies through best management practices' (Journal of Hydrology, 2020). These contributions have amassed over 2,100 citations on Google Scholar, underscoring his influence in advancing environmental modeling, nonpoint source pollution control, and sustainable water resource management within agricultural engineering.
