This project combines field data, groundwater modeling, and advanced numerical modeling to investigate how floodplain vegetation responds to variations in groundwater (Funding: US Department of Agriculture)

This project uses physical and numerical experiments to understand the hydraulic controls of floodplain vegetation on stable natural-channel restoration designs and the degree to which vegetation influences hydrologic exchange flows and floodplain functions. Funding: National Science Foundation CBET-1916780

Developed for the State of Colorado, R2Cross is an online modeling platform used to develop instream flow recommendations (Funding: Colorado Water Conservation Board)

Through this research I develop and apply a methodology to evaluate floodplain integrity by leveraging initial results from my previous work while collaborating with international researchers that provide additional expertise. Funding: Colorado Water Center

The goal of this project is to develop a decision support tool to assist in synthesizing numerous model outputs to identify specific physical and biological habitat needs of select instream fish and floodplain riparian species within the Verde River. Funding: U.S. Geological Survey
