Research Topics

My current work explores the connections between hydrology, water resources management, and aquatic habitats in California’s Central Valley. I contribute to analysis that informs management and decision-making discussions related to endangered salmon in the Central Valley. I also pursue research questions that arise from these real-world management discussions.
