General Research Interest Statement:
Research includes modeling and measurement of precipitation- and irrigation-driven
watersheds from submeter to kilometer scales. Specific subject matter interest
includes water, energy and chemical transport for sustainable agroecosystems.
Research Interest Pertaining to
SAFS project:
The general research subject matter areas are tillage and vegetation effects
on infiltration and the related effects on runoff water quantity and quality
during the irrigation season and during winter precipitation. Sediment
transport is the primary water quality variable. The tools used to investigate
the scaling of data taken at the plot and field scale are primarily stochastic
in nature but we are also investigating deterministic approaches.
