Advancing understanding of ecosystems
Our lab is dedicated to deepening our understanding of hydrological and biogeochemical processes in response to changing climate and disturbances from pristine forests to heavily managed landscapes. To achieve this, our lab integrates empirical observations from lab and field and large datasets with process-based and statistical models from watersheds to continental scales.
