Assoc Prof Dr. Solomon Legesse | Computer Science | Editorial Board Member

Postgraduate Coordinator | Bahir Dar University | Ethiopia

Dr. Solomon Addisu is a leading researcher in climate change, environmental systems, soil science, and sustainable land-use management, with a strong focus on Ethiopia and the broader East African region. His extensive body of work advances understanding of how climate variability, land degradation, agricultural systems, and natural resource pressures intersect to shape environmental sustainability and community resilience. Through more than a decade of scientific contributions, he has established himself as a significant voice in climate adaptation research, soil enhancement technologies, and watershed management.A central pillar of his research explores biochar technology, soil amendments, and nutrient cycling. His studies on water hyacinth-based biochar, phosphorus biofertilizers from animal bone, and the physicochemical transformations of biomass during pyrolysis offer pioneering insights into regenerative agriculture and soil rehabilitation. These works demonstrate the potential of low-cost, sustainable inputs to improve soil fertility, reduce acidification, enhance nutrient retention, and boost crop productivity—especially in degraded highland agroecosystems.Dr. Addisu is also widely recognized for his contributions to climate modeling, hydrological forecasting, and drought analysis. His research using CMIP6 scenarios, rainfall trend evaluations, and meteorological drought assessments provides vital actionable guidance for climate adaptation planning in vulnerable regions. He applies advanced geospatial tools, remote sensing, and machine learning to analyze land-use dynamics, watershed degradation, flood risks, and invasive species monitoring—most notably in the Lake Tana basin.Another core area of his work addresses environmental pollution, urban heat island effects, charcoal production impacts, and sustainable waste management solutions. His studies integrate socioeconomic, ecological, and policy perspectives, offering comprehensive frameworks for environmental governance, community-based adaptation, and nature-based solutions.Additionally, Dr. Addisu’s extensive research on climate change perceptions, rural livelihood vulnerabilities, agricultural resilience, and livestock diversification is widely cited in the fields of sustainable development and rural poverty reduction. His work equips policymakers and communities with evidence-based strategies to build resilience in the face of increasing climate stressors.Overall, Dr. Solomon Addisu’s research portfolio bridges environmental science, climate adaptation, soil restoration, and sustainable natural resource management. His contributions significantly strengthen scientific understanding and provide practical pathways toward ecological stability, food security, and climate-resilient development across Ethiopia and East Africa.
