My research goals are to assess climate change impacts on water availability, particularly in snow-dominated mountainous environments. 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 - Environmental Systems: Landscapes and Water
Primary Instructor
-
Spring 2019 / Fall 2019 / Spring 2024
Lect. and lab. Introduces landscapes and flowing water, emphasizing the formation and geographic distribution of mountains, volcanoes, valleys, and deserts, and their shaping by rivers and glaciers. Includes field trips.

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.
