Dr. Ming-Han Li is an Associate Professor in the Department of Landscape Architecture and
Urban Planning at Texas A&M University. He is also an Assistant Research Engineer with
Texas Transportation Institute. Dr. Li teaches major landscape construction and design
studios, as well as design and planning for stormwater management. His research experience and
background is in bioretention, soil erosion control, stormwater management, roadside
vegetation management and landscape construction and technology. Since coming to
Texas A&M University, Dr. Li has been involved in the work of the Hydraulics,
Sedimentation and Erosion Control Laboratory and he participated in many Texas Department of
Transportation projects, including the silt fence alternatives study, biotechnical streambank
stabilization study, flat terrain runoff travel time study, compost as temporary BMP,
roadside vegetation management study, highway stormwater quality study, and hydrological
size limitation. Dr. Li is a Professional Engineer and a registered Landscape Architect in
the state of Texas.
Dr. Li has written or co-authored several journal articles, including
"The impact of detention basin design on residential property value: case studies using GIS
in the hedonic price modeling." Landscape and Urban Planning, 2009; "Documenting stormwater
quality on Texas highways and adjacent vegetated roadsides." Journal of Environmental
