My work focuses on the complex feedback mechanisms that govern geometries in mixed bedrock-alluvial channels in semi-arid climates. I combine field measurements, numerical modeling, and machine learning to evaluate interactions between vegetation growth, surface and groundwater hydrology, sediment transport, and channel morphology. I primarily study canyons near the Henry Mountains of Southeastern Utah.
