Watersheds

Our group investigates how interactions between hydrology and ecology within wetlands and river networks culminate at the watershed scale. 

Hydrology, ecology and water chemistry are inextricably coupled within lakes, streams and rivers such that each is effected by and affects the others. We use field and lab experiments, mathematical modeling, and data analysis to help learn more about these interactions. We are motivated to understand how best to protect water bodies under changing environmental influences, as well as how surface water processes could be leveraged to remediate or stabilize polluted systems.  ​

Our group has worked on the following projects related to watersheds:
