Andrew Stoddard, Ph.D. - Principal Environmental
Engineer
Dr. Stoddard is a nationally recognized water
quality modeling expert with 33 years of professional
experience in academic research and environmental
consulting. He specializes in the application
of hydrodynamic, hydraulic and surface water quality
models for assessments of the ecological effectiveness
and environmental benefits of water pollution
control policies and regulations as mandated by
the Clean Water Act. He has extensive experience
in conceptualizing, planning and executing innovative
data mining activities of large databases
for (a) data assimilation in environmental models
and (b) statistical analyses of national, regional,
and local-scale water quality status and trends.
Using rigorous "data mining" techniques,
Dr. Stoddard was able to detect, for the first
time, statistically significant national, regional
and local-scale signals" of water quality
improvements that have resulted, in part, from
the technology-based regulatory policies of the
Clean Water Act. The results of this important
study were published in 2002 by John Wiley &
Sons, Inc. as Municipal Wastewater Treatment:
Evaluating Improvements in National Water Quality.
He has also authored a number of technical publications
including peer reviewed book chapters published
in Oceanic Processes in Marine Pollution, Vol.
5: Urban wastes in coastal marine environments
(1988); Coastal and estuarine studies, Novel phytoplankton
blooms: Causes and impacts of recurrent brown
tides and other unusual blooms (1989) and The
Hudson River Ecosystem (in press,2004). Dr. Stoddard
developed comprehensive pre-processing software
to incorporate EPAs WASP5 eutrophication
and toxics water quality models as the surface
water quality model in EPAs Office of Water
National Water Pollution Control Assessment Model
(NWPCAM). The NWPCAM framework, applied on a national-scale
using EPAs River Reach File-based hydrologic
network of inland rivers, lakes and tidal waters,
is used for assessments of policy-related water
quality and economic benefits. Dr. Stoddard is
a part-time instructor for a graduate level multi-media
environmental modeling course. Dr. Stoddard has
specific expertise in the following capabilities:
Hydrodynamic Modeling | Sediment Transport Modeling
| Chemical Fate Modeling | Water Quality and Eutrophication
Modeling | TMDLs and Waste Load Allocations |
Regulatory Policy Evaluations | Industrial Discharge
Analysis Modeling.
