Research interests : My research interest encompasses two focal areas including: (1) watershed hydrology and nutrient dynamics with an emphasis on the study of groundwater-surface water interactions, and (2) wetland and ecotone response/adaptability to climate change and episodic impacts. I am also actively engaged in the development and implementation of shallow-water monitoring programs, their integration into ocean and coastal observation systems, and more recently the development of climate-change sentinel sites.
