Mr. Vergroesen is a senior hydrologist / researcher at Delft Hydraulics, with a M.Sc. in Civil Engineering and over 20 years experience in hydrological modeling. He has developed a strong capacity for conceptual thinking, as well as the ability to translate a hydrological concept into a proper (numerical) approach. Through a Ph.D. study he is developing an approach for integrated modeling of the urban water system.

Scientific interests

• Integrated urban water modeling
• Interaction of rainfall-runoff, surface water, groundwater and sewer sytem
• Water processes in urban areas
• Experiments on runoff process validation and runoff delay measures
• Up and down scaling
