His masters research was completed at East Carolina University in 2001 under Mark M. Brinson, studying how floodplain wetlands and streams change in relation to rainfall and temperature. He has studied streams in Colorado, Delaware, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Maryland, Missouri, Nebraska, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, and Virginia.Major topics of research are: The Hydraulic and sedimentary characterization of the Atchafalaya River Basin, Stream Restoration, Floodplain Subsidence, Sediment and water movement over floodplains.PublicationsBason CW, Kroes DE, Brinson MM. 2017.
