Systems Modeling: fuzzy set and stochastic models and modern system theory; applications to rainfall, runoff, water quality problems (sediments, eutrophication), short-term and long-term forecasting of floods, drought, water demand; also, to the design o knowledge bases.

Managerial Problems: Regional multiobjective analysis; design of water and natural resource systems; decision-making under uncertainty; multi-criterion decision problems; multi-attribute utility; fuzzy and bayesian approaches to design reliability and risk; forecasting-response systems.
