Key takeaways

Saeid Eslamian belongs to astronomy; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Saeid Eslamian to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Saeid Eslamian from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Saeid Eslamian is a full professor of Resilient Climate and Water Systems at Isfahan University of Technology in the Department of Water Science and Engineering. His research focuses mainly on statistical and environmental hydrology and climate change. In particular, he is working on forecasting natural hazards including flood, drought, storm, wind, pollution toward a sustainable environment. He is now the Director of Excellence in risk management and natural hazards. Formerly, he was a visiting professor at Princeton University, United States, university of ETH Zurich, Switzerland and McGill University, Montreal, Quebec, Canada. He has contributed to more than 600 publications in journals, books, or as technical reports. He is the founder and chief editor of International Journal of Hydrology Science and Technology. Currently, he has been the author of about 210 books and book chapters. Eslamian is the editorial board member and reviewer of about 100 Web of Science (ISI) Journals. Saeid is the editor of Journal of Hydrology (Elsevier)Journal of Hydrology, Ecohydrology and Hydrobiology (Elsevier), Journal of the Saudi Society of Agricultural Sciences (Elsevier), Journal of Water Reuse and Desalination (IWA). He is a member of the following associations: American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), International Association of Hydrologic Science (IAHS), World Conservation Union (IUCN), GC Network for Drylands Research and Development (NDRD), International Association for Urban Climate (IAUC), International Society for Agricultural Meteorology, UK Chinese Association of Resources and Environment, Association of Water and Environment Modeling. From 2010, Eslamian has started scientific collaboration internationally toward Sustainable Development and Ecological resilience. He is currently the head of International Collaboration for Environmental Sustainability (ICES) having about 1000 members including Professors, Directors, Sustainability Professionals, Policy Makers, Senior and Graduate Students.

Biography Saeid Eslamian was born in the city of Isfahan in 1961. His father was a miniaturist. He finished Hakimsanaei high school in Isfahan in 1979. After the Islamic Revolution, he was admitted to Isfahan University of Technology for B.S. Degree in water engineering. Eslamian graduated in 1986. After his graduation, he was offered a scholarship for a master's degree at Tarbiat Modares University, Tehran. Eslamian finished his study in hydrology and water resources in 1989. In 1991, he was awarded a grant for studying Ph.D. in civil engineering at the University of New South Wales, Australia. His supervisor was David H. Pilgrim, who encouraged Saeid for working on ‘Regional Flood Frequency Analysis Using a New Region of Influence Approach”. After he obtained his PhD in 1995, he returned to Iran. Eslamian was employed by Isfahan University of Technology (IUT) upon arrival. In 2001, he was promoted to associate professor, and in 2014 to full professor. Eslamian was nominated for different positions in IUT including President Consultant, Faculty Deputy of Education, and head of department. Eslamian had three sabbatical leaves in United States, Switzerland and Canada in 2006. 2008 and 2015 respectively. In the U.S., he was offered a position of visiting professor (visiting scholar) by Princeton University and worked jointly with Eric F. Wood from School of Engineering and Applied Sciences for one year. The outcome was a contribution in hydrological and agricultural drought interaction by developing multi-variate L-moments between soil moisture and low flows for northeastern U.S. streams. Prof. Eslamian is an International Chief Editor for well known publisher companies such as Elsevier, Springer, Taylor and Francis, John Wiley & Sons and Nova Science Publishers. In late 2019, he was appointed as an Editor Adviser of Springer Nature Book Series.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Saeid Eslamian

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Saeid Eslamian claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In astronomy, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Saeid Eslamian before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Saeid Eslamian ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Saeid Eslamian

In research: Saeid Eslamian appears in astronomy research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Saeid Eslamian in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Saeid Eslamian is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1961 births, Academic staff of Isfahan University of Technology, Hydrologists, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Saeid Eslamian outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
