Welcome! Our research group focuses on physical hydrology research from small catchment scales all the way up to continental river basins. Our mission is understanding how climate change and land cover disturbance fundamentally affect water resources. Major analytical tools include development and application of sophisticated land surface models that merge in situ observations and remote sensing within a physically consistent framework.
