| Research
Interests |
| Nonpoint source pollution is the
general area of my research. More specifically,
that includes riparian zone restoration, analyzing
the effectiveness of various best management practices,
and evaluating models. I also continue to do research
in wetland hydrology and water quality. I have
a general interest in proper designs of water quality
monitoring studies and have written a book on the
subject. |
