Ecohydrology  and Hydrogeology

The Ecohydrology and Hydrogeology Research Group takes a broad, interdisciplinary view of the linked roles of groundwater and plant-water interactions in the dynamic physical, chemical, and biological cycles of the Earth System. Our research addresses four coupled sets of interactions:

.     Groundwater-Surface Water Interactions

.     Plant-Water Interactions

.     Land-Atmosphere Interactions

.     Land-Ocean Interactions

These topics are combined in our two principal group focus areas, at present:

.     Coastal Ecohydrology and Intertidal Dynamics

.     Evapotranspiration and Land-Atmosphere Coupling

We use field studies, numerical modeling, remote sensing analysis, and laboratory experimentation to answer compelling and important research questions. We are always open to new and exciting ideas, tools, and methods!
