Profile

My research has focused on issues relating to the Middle Rio Grande, including bosque evapotranspiration estimates, climate change impacts on streamflow, and the intersection of restoration & flood control goals. I direct the Hydraulics Lab where we build physical models of stormwater structures for the local flood control authority and the DOT. In addition to traditional water resources courses, I teach a graduate-level course that emphasizes the modeling capabilities of GIS.
