RESEARCH INTERESTS:

Research interests include: understanding fundamental mechanics involved in runoff generation and sediment delivery; quantifying effects of agricultural management practices that reduce runoff and sediment losses; developing interrelationships between intrinsic soil properties, rainfall characteristics, runoff and sediment losses, and agrichemical (pesticides and phosphorus) losses; quantifying effects of "extreme" rainfall events on runoff, sediment, and agrichemical losses; relating soil physical and morphological properties to water movement and agrichemical persistence/kinetics and movement; and developing databases to improve and/or develop models (especially event-based) to predict runoff, sediment, and agrichemical losses, and assess the risk associated with these losses on surface water quality.
