Dr. Sobri Harun is a professor in water resources engineering at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM). He received B.Sc. in Civil Engineering from the University of Salford, a Master's degree from Imperial College London, and a Ph.D. from UTM. His lectures concern hydrology, hydraulics, hydraulic structures, water resources, and urban stormwater management for undergraduate and postgraduate. His research and publication are mostly related to modelling in hydrology, river engineering, water resources, and climate changes. His research works were published in various indexed journals. He is a panel member of the Malaysian Quality Assurance Agency, a visiting professor of Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia, a member of IAHR & IAHS, a guest editor to Journal of Water and Climate Change, and an editorial board to Malaysian Construction Research Journal. He was the chairman of the International Conference on Water Resources, which received support from UNESCO Jakarta and the Department of Drainage and Irrigation Malaysia. Dr. Mohamad Hidayat Jamal is an associate professor at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM). He obtained his Ph.D. in coastal engineering in 2011 from the University of Plymouth, UK. His bachelor's degree is in civil engineering, and his master's degree is in hydraulics and hydrology from UTM. He has experience in academics for nearly 20 years. He serves the Department of Water and Environmental Engineering, School of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, UTM. He is also a member of the Center for Coastal and River Engineering (CRCE), Research Institute for Sustainable Environment (RISE), UTM. He is also a professional engineer, Board of Engineer Malaysia (BEM); a chartered marine engineer, the Institute of Marine Engineering, Science & Technology, UK (IMarEST); a chartered engineer of Engineering Council, UK (EC, UK); a certified professional in Erosion and Sediment Control (CPESC), and a professional Technologist, Malaysia Board of Technologist, (MBOT). Dr. Ilya Khairanis Othman is a senior lecturer at the Department of Water and Environmental Engineering, School of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, UTM Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM). She completed her bachelor's degree is in Civil Engineering from UTM in 2007 and joined UTM after completing her M.Sc. at the University of Plymouth, UK, in 2008/9. She obtained her Ph.D. from the University of Queensland, Australia, in 2014 in the field of coastal engineering. Her teaching and research evolve around fluid and coastal hydraulics and have led to several national research grants. She is currently serving as the deputy director for Coastal and River Engineering (CRCE), Research Institute for Sustainable Environment (RISE), UTM. She is a lifetime member of the International Association of Coastal Reservoir Research (IACRR), a professional member of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), and a registered engineer with the Board of Engineer Malaysia (BEM).
