Sara Sayed
I have good experience in field trials, monitoring heavy metals and pesticides, identifying macro-invertebrates, and using them in assessing water quality and studying the impacts of different aquatic pollutants on the biological aspects of freshwater ecosystems. Besides, I am interested in learning new techniques to remove pollutants from various water resources, and I have research in this field under publication. I have participated as a member and Co-PI of four projects funded by TBRI. I participated in research on climate change's impact contaminants on water quality in six Delta governorates using GIS techniques.
