Ecosystem Services Lab

My early research focused on the fate and transport of waterborne contaminants in the coastal ocean and their public health implications. However, many coastal problems have upstream watershed solutions, leading me to expand my research up watershed to explore the causes of and solutions to formal drainage problems. My current work lies at the nexus of the social, ecological, and engineering sciences and frequently involves a combination of field ecology, hydrology, public perception surveys, and statistical modeling tools to integrate multi-disciplinary perspectives.
