RESEARCH INTERESTS

My research interests centre on the interactions between water and environmental systems and the development of sustainable water-management practices. I am particularly interested in surface-water hydrology, urban drainage systems, hydraulic infrastructure and the ecological processes that shape freshwater and coastal wetlands.

 

Key research interests:

  • Ecohydrology
  • Wetland systems
  • Vegetation dynamics and modelling
  • Blue carbon ecosystems
  • Surface-water hydrology
  • Urban drainage and hydraulic infrastructure
  • Sustainable water management
