Our research focuses on stream channel structure and sediment dynamics, influence of human activities on streams, techniques for measuring and improving in-stream habitat, and development of technologies and strategies for successful stream restoration. However, we also delve into the following areas of research depending on funding and graduate-student interests: floodplain dynamics; groundwater/surface water dynamics; livestock exclusion & pasture management, urban stormwater BMPs, UAVs for stream and floodplain mapping, visualization techniques for watersheds & monitoring data; and antibiotic resistant gene & bacteria transport in the environment.
