Richard M. Vogel
Richard M. Vogel is an American hydrologist and environmental engineer. [1]He is a Professor Emeritus in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Tufts University.[2]
Education and career
He earned his bachelor of Science in Engineering Science and Systems from the University of Virginia in 1976.[3] He went on to earn his Master of Science in Environmental Science and Hydrology in 1979 and his Ph.D. in Water Resource Systems from Cornell University in 1984.[3]
He began his career at Tufts University in 1984 and developed courses and programs related to water resource engineering.[1] He established courses at the undergraduate, master’s, and Ph.D. levels. Additionally, he was instrumental in the creation of the interdisciplinary graduate program Water: Systems, Science, and Society, which involves students from various disciplines across Tufts, excluding the Dental School.[4] In 2016, after 33 years of service, he transitioned to Professor Emeritus.[5]
His research has centered on statistical hydrology, hydrologic risk management, and water resource systems.[6] His work has involved developing stochastic watershed models, improving hydrologic design methods, and examining the impact of climate change on water resources.[7][1]
He led a project for the Boston Groundwater Trust to assess groundwater recharge methods in the city.[8] In recent years, his research has focused on the effects of climate change on water resource systems, helping to develop better methods for risk-based planning in the context of climate change.[1]
Vogel is also a writer, having authored publications on statistical methods in hydrology. [9]He has written over 150 articles in refereed journals as well as book chapters.
He contributed chapters to handbooks, including the Handbook of Hydrology and ASCE Handbooks.[10]
In 2021, he was named a Distinguished Member of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE).[11] He received the Ven Te Chow Award from ASCE in 2020,[12] and in 2017, he was elected a Fellow of the American Geophysical Union.[13]
