Research Interest
My research interest lies at the intersection of hydrology and biogeochemistry.
In particular I am interested in how hydrologic processes play a fundamental control in
controlling biogeochemical processes and fluxes at the catchment scale.
My research group spans from field investigations designed to understand these controls at a mechanistic and process
level to modelling studies focused on forecasting biogeochemical and water quality conditions
at the catchment to basin scale. In particular on the modelling side my group works
on developing model calibration and uncertainty techniques that can coexist with the
both multi-dimensional and yet sparse data that is typically available for water quality modelling at the basin to catchment scale.
My work has spanned environments as diverse as desert scrub and alpine ecosystems and from scales of single soil profiles to
10,000 square kilometer catchments. As part of my research I provide continuing support for the AHM Model .

I am a professor in the Hydrology and Water Resources Department HWR at The University of Arizona in Tucson, Arizona.
I went to The University of Maryland in College Park Maryland for my undergraduate Education.
And from 1999-2004 I served as an assistant professor of Hydrology in the Department of Environmental Sciences at the University of California Riverside
