Evan Davies, Ph.D., P.Eng. brings over 17 years of academic research and consulting experience to help municipalities, irrigators, government, and industry make better decisions about water resource and infrastructure planning and management.
Practical, research-backed consulting for water resources, environmental planning, and infrastructure decision-making, with particular expertise in:
Research-backed consulting for municipal and regional water resource challenges, including water availability assessments, demand forecasting, infrastructure planning, and long-term scenario analysis to support policy and investment decisions.

Reservoir operations optimization and seasonal streamflow projections to support irrigation planning and agricultural water use efficiency.
Integrated assessment of water-energy-food-climate interactions, carbon footprint analysis, and sustainability evaluation for major infrastructure and energy projects.
Davies Water Management specializes in water resources planning and management, systems modelling, and integrated environmental assessment. Whether you need support with municipal water demand, irrigation systems, flood risk, drought planning and management, or long-term infrastructure planning, we bring rigorous analytical methods and practical decision-support tools to every project.
Global and regional-scale modelling of water security using the GCAM model and system dynamics modelling of the Bow River basin.
Short and long-term demand projections using system dynamics and machine learning, evaluating climate and policy scenarios.
Flood damage assessment modelling for municipalities and regional authorities.

Note: while we strive for accuracy and reliability, these tools are under development and should be used with professional judgement and independent verification where appropriate. Contact us with comments or questions, or if interested in collaboration.
A web-based evapotranspiration (ET) analysis and irrigation guidance tool designed for Alberta agricultural workflows, including AquaCrop-based crop simulation.
A web-based daily streamflow forecasting platform for the Oldman Dam using machine learning models including SVR, ANN, XGBoost, and LSTM.
Both tools are live and available. Visit the Tools page for full details and direct access.
Dr. Evan Davies is always interested in collaborating with motivated graduate students and industry partners on applied water resources, forecasting, and decision-support challenges.
