Hydrologic Research Center (HRC)
Dr. Emilie Tarouilly is a hydrometeorologist/engineer at the Hydrologic Research Center (HRC) in San Diego. She has a broad scientific background including ecology, water resources management and hydrometeorology. Emilie obtained her B.Sc. in Biology and M.Sc. in Environmental Engineering from Imperial College, London (UK). She then spent two years at Thames Water (UK), London’s water utility, where she worked on water distribution networks, the resilience of water treatment plants and drought planning. Emilie then received her PhD from UCLA where her research focused on numerical weather prediction modeling of extreme precipitation. In particular, she has developed improved guidance for the estimation of probable maximum precipitation (PMP) for dam safety. Her expertise includes WRF modeling, uncertainty estimation, climate change projections and design flood estimation. Dr. Tarouilly has published several papers and organized many workshops and conference sessions on PMP estimation.
