Research

Hydrodynamic and ecological modeling: simulating the impacts of hydrology on ecological systems (and vice versa) with particular interest in management implications and system resiliency. Specific interests include coastal hydrodynamics and water quality, population dynamics, and habitat suitability. Model analysis: using multi-criteria decision analysis, sensitivity and uncertainty analysis, and calibration/validation to 1) refine and simplify models, 2) reduce model uncertainty, 3) target monitoring efforts, 4) provide information regarding a model’s reliability, and 5) identify optimal management choices.
