As a hydrologist, I research environmental dynamics related to water availability, particularly in snow-dominated, mountainous regions. Using measurements and models, I assess ecohydrologic processes across scales, from the study plot to the scale of continents. I strive to develop approaches in collaboration with diverse stakeholder groups to inform sustainable adaptation and decision strategies.
GEOG 1011 - Our Changing Planet: Landscapes and Water
Primary Instructor
-
Spring 2019 / Fall 2019 / Spring 2024 / Fall 2024
In many ways, the Earth is defined by its abundance of water and vigorous hydrologic cycle. This course introduces how floodplains and their associated river systems, river deltas, erosional features such as the Grand Canyon, depositional features such as Cape Cod and Long Island, as well as mountain and even desert landscapes reflect the great power of water in shaping our planet and impacting life on Earth.
GEOG 3511 - The Water Cycle
Primary Instructor
-
Fall 2023 / Fall 2024
The pathway a raindrop or snowflake takes from the atmosphere to the stream determines water quality and quantity society relies on. This course examines the water cycle and its relationship with climate, vegetation, and soil. Learn how to work with quantitative analysis tools used by water managers during labs.
GEOG 4321 - Snow Hydrology
Primary Instructor
-
Spring 2022 / Spring 2023
Offers a multidisciplinary and quantitative analysis of physico-chemical processes that operate in seasonally snow-covered areas, from the micro- to global-scale: snow accumulation, metamorphism, ablation, chemical properties, biological aspects, electromagnetic properties, remote sensing, GIS and quantitative methods. Same as GEOG 5321.
