- Presentation
- In the second part of this video series, Shlomo Neuman is interviewed by J. Carrera and A. Guadagnini about his life and work after establishing his research group in Tucson, Arizona. This period covers a very broad range of research topics such as his work on geostatistics, inverse methods, fractured media or multi-scale theory.

- About Shlomo P. Neuman
Shlomo Peter Neuman is Regents professor of Hydrology and Water Resources at the University of Arizona in Tucson, and he is clearly one of the scientists who changed the face of hydrogeology during the 20th century. Starting with his early work on well hydraulics, he has been continuously exploring new challenges and developed theoretical and numerical tools that provided practical answers to a broad range of problems including aquifer characterization, inverse modeling, fractured media, stochastic method, or multiscale analysis. His influence on the profession can be directly measured today by the high number of his former students or collaborators who are now leading some of the most active hydrogeological research groups in the world.
