What is Integrated Systems Hydrology?
We are an interdisciplinary lab that integrates remote sensing, mechanistic and machine learning models, field observations, and community based knowledge to address complex hydrological challenges. We consider the interactions between surface water, groundwater, climate, land use, and human activities to develop a holistic understanding of water resources.
We are looking for graduate students to join our lab for Fall 2026.
