SHORT BIOGRAPHY
Dr.
Houser
is an expert in local to global land surface-atmospheric
remote sensing, in-situ observation and numerical
simulation, development and application of hydrologic data
assimilation methods, and global water and energy cycling.
He received his B.S. and Ph.D. degrees in
Hydrology and Water Resources
from the
University of Arizona
in 1992 and 1996 respectively. His dissertation research,
titled "Remote
Sensing Soil Moisture using Four-Dimensional Data
Assimilation"
introduced data assimilation into hydrological models, and
demonstrated the benefit of including information from soil
moisture observations in land-surface energy and water
balance simulations. Dr.
Houser's
previous experience includes exploration of surface water
quality issues at the
U.S. Geological Survey,
development of landfill cover technology at
Los Alamos National Laboratory,
study of fracture flow in volcanic tuff near
Globe
Arizona,
hydrometerological instrumentation design and measurment of
surface water and energy fluxes throughout
Arizona,
and teaching
general hydrology,
hydrologic field camp,
and graduate
hydrometerology seminar classes.
Dr.
Houser
joined the
NASA-GSFC
Hydrological Sciences Branch
and the
Data Assimilation Office in
1997, and served as manager of
NASA’s Land Surface Hydrology Program
from 1999-2000, and served as branch head of the
Hydrological Science Branch
from 2000-2005. In 2005, he joined the
George Mason University
Climate Dynamics Program
as the Professor of Global Hydrology, and formed the
Center for Research for Environment and Water
with the mission to quantify and predict water cycle and
environmental consequences of earth system variability and
change through focused research investments in observation,
modeling, and application. During 2008-2010, Dr. Houser
worked with
EarthWater Global
to help countries solve their fresh water shortages, where
he was responsible for providing satellite-based“local short
term statistical information on rainfall, snowpack and
glaciers, especially in heavily fractured mountainous
regions. In 2011-2012, Dr. Houser server as Science Advisor
to the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, where he was responsible
for developing the Scientific Integrity, Peer Review, and
Data Stewardship policies, as well as coordinateing
Reclamation activities with other agencies and the broad
scientific community. Dr.
Houser
has led numerous scientific contributions, including the
development of
Land Data Assimilation Systems (LDAS),
the
Hydrospheric States Mission (Hydros),
the
Land Information System
(LIS),
the
NASA Energy and Water cycle Study (NEWS),
and the
Water Cycle Solutions Network (WaterNet).
Dr.
Houser’s
current research focuses on integrating water cycle research
across traditional disciplines in an end-to-end program that
transitions theoretical research to academic/public
education and real-world application, through partnerships
with universities, governments, and international agencies.
CAREER OBJECTIVE AND OVERALL SUMMARY
Dr.
Houser’s
career goal is to continually improve his leadership in
global water cycle research of direct relevance to society,
including local to global land surface-atmospheric process
observation and numerical simulation, and development and
application of ecohydrologic data assimilation methods. He
is also broadly interested in exploring the physical,
spatial, and temporal interconnections between all the earth
system components as they relate to the global water and
energy cycles. His more specific interests include, water
and energy flux studies at various scales including vadose
zone, surface, and atmospheric interactions, regional land
surface-atmospheric hydrologic modeling, remote sensing,
surface flux observation, and near surface soil moisture
investigation. He is especially interested in applying
cutting-edge research to develop practical solutions to
water problems faced by society.
LEADERSHIP
Dr.
Houser
has proven leadership skills and ability to build
world-class research capabilities, as demonstrated in his
leadership positions at
NASA
and CREW. This is evidenced by his terms as
NASA
Headquarters Program Manager in Hydrology, Head of the
NASA
Hydrological Sciences Branch, Project Scientist for the
Hydros soil moisture satellite mission and the
NASA
Energy and Water cycle Study (NEWS), and as Director of the
Center for Research on Environment and Water (CREW).
Moreover, during his time at
NASA
he established a team of more than 30 support scientists
through his national competitive funding awards. Currently
CREW (a Center that is wholly supported by his national
competitive funding awards), has already grown to more than
10 support scientists in only 3 years. Dr.
Houser
has been awarded a considerable number of large research
grants with very ambitious goals. These grants have been
successfully completed as evidenced by his significant
publication track record in highly regarded peer-reviewed
journals. Moreover, his research has often bridged
interdisciplinary boundaries. He has also received several
prestigious awards, including a U.S. Presidential Award.
Evidence of his substantial track record relative to his
relatively short career. Dr.
Houser
was recognized as one of the most exceptional and visionary
scientists amongst
NASA’s
already gifted and forward thinking leaders. It is no
surprise then that it is Dr.
Houser
who has been chosen to lead many innovative and ambitious
projects. As a gifted leader he consistently takes action to
motivate, inspire and coordinate the talents of others,
directing their efforts in areas of groundbreaking research
to attain excellence in all of their endeavors.
Since his decision in 2005 to join George Mason University
as a faculty member, Dr.
Houser
has guided his students and empowered them with the
necessary skills to achieve their goals and become
successful. He encourages and trusts others around him to
think independently but also engage as a team when necessary
while applying cutting-edge research to develop practical
solutions to water problems faced by society today.
Dr.
Houser
is often described as a visionary leader, and has
demonstrated his capacity to leave an enduring legacy at
NASA,
which includes several hydrology missions, modeling
projects, and research themes. An esteemed colleague once
described Dr.
Houser
as one of the most exceptional scientists amongst
NASA’s
already gifted and forward thinking leaders. Dr.
Houser
actively engages colleagues and partners on collaborative
projects and quite frequently is the member who is chosen to
lead collaborative, interdiciplinary endeavors. Projects
under the direction of Dr.
Houser
invariably impact the international, as well as lnational
scientific community. As a gifted leader he consistently
takes action to motivate, inspire and coordinate the talents
of others, directing their efforts in areas of
groundbreaking research to attain excellence in all
endeavors. Dr.
Houser
keeps current and connected to others by attending,
presenting and coordinating seminars and workshops,
teaching, presenting lectures at graduate and undergraduate
levels, developing academic curricula, dissertation advising
and continuing his research activities. Dr.
Houser
has a proven reputation in the educational as well as
scientific community and has an extensive list of
collaborations. Dr.
Houser
encourages and trusts others around him to think
independently but also engage as a team when necessary while
applying cutting-edge research to develop practical
solutions to water problems faced by society today. Dr.
Houser
is a team builder with the motto of ‘water cycle research
making a difference’.
TEACHING
Dr.
Houser
has actively guided his students and empowered them with the
necessary skills to achieve their goals and become
successful. As a teacher and mentor, he consistently takes
actions to coordinate the talents of outstanding young
scientists from diverse backgrounds and cultures, directing
their efforts in the most effective way. He has mentored
students from Australia, Belgium, South America, Europe and
throughout the United States and no matter if they are high
school interns or postdocs, advising individually, or in
groups, Dr.
Houser
believes the greatest gift you can give others is to enable
them to succeed, never be selfish about your ideas, and one
good idea can benefit many. Dr.
Houser
carries out this philosophy by encouraging others to think,
question, and go beyond to explore the fringes of science.
He enjoys sharing his knowledge with others, is not afraid
of confronting the unknown, and pushes to search for answers
to questions that still have not been addressed.
Dr. Houser has taught courses in principles of hydrology,
land-climate interactions, environmental remote sensing,
hydrologic data assimilation, global water cycling,
micrometeorological observation, and snow hydrology. In
addition, Dr. Houser is interested in developing coursework
at both the undergraduate and graduate levels in local to
global land surface-atmospheric process observation (both
in-situ and remotely-sensed), numerical hydrological
simulation, the physical, spatial, and temporal
interconnections between all the earth system components as
they relate to the global water and energy cycles, water and
energy processes at various scales including vadose zone,
surface, and atmospheric interactions, regional land
surface-atmospheric hydrologic modeling , and near surface
soil moisture investigation. Finally, Dr. Houser is
especially interested in developing coursework on the
application of cutting-edge science that bridges the gap
between cutting-edge research and practical application to
make a real contribution to society.
