abstract: 'As a research hydrologist with the GCMRC and SBSC, I conduct original | |||
research linking hydrology and sediment transport to fluvial geomorphic processes. My | |||
research is conducted in the Rio Grande in the Big Bend region of far west Texas, | |||
the Green and Yampa Rivers in Dinosaur National Monument, the Green and Colorado | |||
Rivers in Canyonlands National Park, the Little Colorado River and its tributaries | |||
in northern Arizona, and the Colorado River in Grand Canyon National Park. My | |||
research aims to quantify how hydrologic and geomorphic processes respond to | |||
factors such as climate change, large-scale water development and management, | |||
the widespread establishment of non-native riparian plants, and anthropogenic | |||
modifications to fluvial bottomlands. All of these perturbations directly affect | |||
how water and sediment are routed through fluvial drainage networks, which controls | |||
the geomorphic behavior, and biologic processes of these river systems.Much | |||
of my work incorporates the use of acoustic instrumentation to passively monitor | |||
suspended-sediment transport processes on rivers with high suspended-sediment | |||
loads. This work is paired with measurements of geomorphic change using a variety | |||
of data and techniques including: high-resolution topographic data collected | |||
with real-time-kinematic GPS and LIDAR, aerial imagery, and analysis of historical | |||
hydrologic and geomorphic data. My work is directly relevant to the primary | |||
scientific understanding of the hydrologic and geomorphic behavior of these | |||
rivers, as well as the management actions that may help mitigate fluvial perturbations | |||
that have occurred. My work also focuses on the biogeomorphic interactions | |||
between stream flow, sediment transport, and riparian vegetation, and how those | |||
interactions can result in negative and/or positive feedbacks of geomorphic | |||
change.' | |||
