Qizhong (George) Guo
Professor of Civil & Environmental Engineering at Rutgers University–New Brunswick. Research interests include urban stormwater, estuarine processes, flood resilience, and Green–Grey–Blue–Intelligent (GGBI) systems.
About
I am a professor of civil and environmental engineering at Rutgers University. My work focuses on how water moves through natural and built environments, with research and teaching spanning stormwater, hydrology, hydraulics, estuarine processes, watershed systems, and integrated water and urban infrastructure.
The site provides a central record of my academic and professional work, including research contributions, publications, teaching materials, invited talks, and reflections developed over the course of my career.
Research Contributions
My research spans urban stormwater and green infrastructure; hydraulics and hydrology; estuarine and coastal processes; watershed and basin-scale studies; and integrated systems such as the Green–Grey–Blue–Intelligent (GGBI) framework.
Current work emphasizes resilient, sustainable, and equitable water and urban systems across scales—from site-based practices to watershed and regional planning.
Publications & Reports
A curated collection of peer-reviewed papers, technical reports, invited presentations, grey literature, and selected public-facing writing.
This section serves as a broader repository than conventional academic indexes, documenting work across research, practice, and outreach.
Reflections & Synthesis
Occasional notes and distillations drawn from past and ongoing work in water and environmental systems. These pieces reflect on lessons learned, emerging questions, and connections across projects and disciplines.
Teaching & Mentorship
Graduate and undergraduate courses taught at Rutgers, along with selected educational materials and course-related resources.
This section also highlights broader mentorship through teaching, advising, collaborative projects, and professional engagement with students and colleagues.
Facilities
A brief overview of laboratory and instructional facilities that support teaching, experimentation, and selected research in water resources and environmental systems.
These facilities include flumes, hydraulic and hydrologic apparatus, and other tools used in coursework, student projects, and collaborative studies.
