Nejc is an assistant professor at the University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Civil and Geodetic Engineering. He finished his PhD in 2016. His research work is composed of two main parts. The first part is focused on the hydrological processes, mostly on the rainfall-runoff relationship. This includes hydrological (i.e. rainfall-runoff) modelling, climate change investigations, statistical analysis of past measured data, field measurements using state-of-the-art equipment, etc. The second part of his research work is focused on different elements of the erosion-sedimentation cycle. This includes soil erosion modelling, rainfall erosivity investigations, erosion and sediment transport measurements, landslides triggering prediction, debris flow modelling and in- investigations of the historical events, etc. He has published more than 40 scientific papers that are indexed in the Web of Science (WoS) database and his H-index is 12 with the total number of citations equal to 530 according to the WoS. Furthermore, several of his papers have also been published in the Slovenian language in local journals. He has performed reviews for more than 30 international scientific journals and research agencies. Moreover, he is actively involved in multiple national and international and research and applied projects. He is currently the leader of the WG1 of the Land4Flood COST action. Furthermore, he teaches Hydrological modelling, Drainage and Irrigation, Engineering Hydraulics, courses. He has supervised and co-supervised more than 10 students at master and bachelor levels and is currently mentoring 1 PhD student.
