   intro_statements:
   - 'My research focuses on hydrological hazards associated with volcanic eruptions
     and landscape responses to large inputs of sediment, including from dam removals.
     Projects focus on: (1) identifying hydrogeomorphic processes altered by volcanic
     disturbance; (2) evaluating hydrogeomorphic consequences; and (3) quantifying
     characteristic hydrogeomorphic response times and durations.'
