Research

Aquatic Biogeochemistry

  • Nitrogen and carbon cycling in aquatic environments
  • Global biogeochemistry of nutrients and carbon

  • Development of continental scale aquatic ecosystem models

Arctic and the Cryosphere

  • The effect of climate change on the polar ice sheets
  • River ice responses to a warming Arctic
  • Interactions between land cover/use change and hydrology
  • Pan-Arctic and global-scale hydrometeorological modeling

Macro-Hydrology Resources

  • Ecosystem services in suburban and agricultural New England landscapes
  • Characterization of hydrology-related ecosystem services
  • Feedbacks among biogeochemistry, hydrology, and human activities through time
  • Biogeochemical and hydrological responses to urbanization and climate change
