My Profile

About

I aim to help society manage and restore hydrogeomorphic processes in support of enhanced ecosystem functioning. Working with others, I do this through a combination of basic physical and ecological science to understand how the naturally complex landscape works and technology transfer to get the methods we develop into the hands of practitioners, regulators, and stakeholders. Teaching, service, and outreach are also important.
