Danny is an assistant professor at Colorado State University. He completed his B.S. at the University of Utah in Civil Engineering, and his M.S. and Ph.D. from CSU in Civil and Environmental Engineering. He has had a fascination with rivers since he was young, and although the pleasure of experiencing river corridors in person leads him to pursue field research opportunities, he is also excited about studying the interaction of flow, sediment, vegetation, and other aquatic organisms in lab and numerical experiments as well.

Antonio Reveles-Hernandez is a PhD student at Colorado State University. He obtained B.A in Environmental Studies and an M.A. in Earth Sciences at the University of Northern Colorado. His research interests are studying the interactions between water, sediment, and vegetation in rivers. Antonio is also interested in studying the effects that invasive vegetation has on river processes and ecosystems.

Brooke is investigating how to estimate discharge in rivers using antidune bedform characteristics. Antidunes form in near critical flow conditions typically in steep-sloped areas where sites are ungauged and can be dangerous to access. Making assumptions about the flow’s Froude number and wave celerity will be used to make accurate estimates of discharge when antidunes are present. A deeper investigation into the relationship between wave celerity and flow velocity in the upper regime will support more accurate discharge predictions in mobile bed environments.
