Research Areas
Our interdisciplinary research spans multiple domains, addressing critical challenges in water resources, agricultural sustainability, and environmental systems.
Ecohydrology
Understanding patterns and process in dryland landscapes, from leaf-level processes to ecosystem-wide water cycles and their response to environmental change.
Sensors, Measurements, and Software
Developing novel approaches that illuminate ecohydrological patterns and processes through advanced remote sensing and monitoring technologies.
Coupled Natural-Human Systems
Resolving coupled social-environmental system dynamics in subsistence agriculture and developing sustainable water management strategies.
