ABOUT JOSE BORRERO
In 2002 I earned a PhD in coastal engineering at the University of Southern California (USC) in Los Angeles, California. I then worked as a postdoctorate and research professor before moving to Raglan, New Zealand in 2006 to work with the oceanographic consulting group ASR Ltd. In May of 2012, I co-founded eCoast Marine Consulting and Research. As of January 2024 I parted ways with eCoast to start ORCAS Consulting.My background is in civil and environmental engineering with an emphasis on coastal science, tsunami hazards and water resources. I am particularly interested in tsunami hydrodynamics and the coastal effects of tsunamis. My other research interests include coastal processes, sediment transport, wave breaking, and the design of erosion control and beach protection structures and schemes. I have also been involved in large-scale laboratory physical modelling projects related to both tsunamis, coastal hydrodynamics and erosion.
