Supported by a recent NSF award with Dr. Ellen Wohl, this project focuses on understanding the role of channel-spanning large wood on morphological and hydrologic processes in rivers, including better applications of large wood in river restoration. (NSF award 2229839)

This NSF-supported project includes a combination of field, flume, and modelling methods to understand how changes in floodplain vegetation impact channel hydraulics and morphology during floods. (NSF award 1916780)

My NSF CAREER award focuses on evaluating the importance of river-floodplain connectivity on flood reduction. This research includes a combination of field data and hydrodynamic modeling to better understand watershed resilience and flooding processes. (NSF award 2142761)

The Transformation Network is a large collaborative research network that aims to work with communities and partners to enhance watershed resilience through convergent research. I am working actively with the Coalition for the Poudre River Watershed to explore the effectiveness of low-tech stream restoration techniques. (NSF award 2115169)
