Biography

<div> </div> Ammar Adham Ali was born on August 22, 1978 in Anah city, Anbar, Iraq. Ammar received a bachelor’s degree (BSc.) in civil engineering from the University of Anbar (Iraq 2000). After another year of study he received a Higher diploma from the University of Technology (Baghdad, 2001), where he also graduated with a master degree (MSc.) in 2008.  Ammar starting working with the engineering consultant bureau in the University of Anbar (2000-2002), supervising, planning and designing several projects. He then worked with the Mayoralty of Baghdad (2002-2003). After 2003, he returned to the University of Anbar as a lecturer in the civil engineering department of the engineering college on hydrology and water resources engineering. Ammar was awarded a scholarship from Iraqi government under the Higher Committee for Education Development in Iraq (HCED) for doing his PhD. During his PhD. he developed experience in working with various modelling approaches such as water balance modelling and climate change modelling. This experience was used in developing a new model for investigating and optimising the performance of rainwater harvesting structures. Ammar has participated in and presented his work at several international events, including the 2015 General Assembly of the European Geosciences Union (EGU) in Vienna, Austria; and Integrated land and water resources management in the dry areas under climate change, Tunisia 2015. Ammar is married and has three children: a 13-year-old daughter, a 12-year-old son and 2 years old young son.
