The goal of the wetland ecohydrology group is to use principles from hydrology and ecology to improve our fundamental understanding of wetland and riparian ecosystems. We focus on studying the interactive pathways between surface and ground waters, how beavers and humans influence these pathways, and as a result, how water and nutrients are transported from wetlands and riparian areas. We have research sites in the Rocky Mountains, prairies, and boreal forest.
