Current Projects
I am currently answering four primary research questions:
- Regional water budget: How do various timber management scenarios affect mean annual water yield in catchments in the southeastern United States? [Forest Ecology and Management. In Press.]
- Agricultural water use: How might anticipated climatic changes influence agricultural water use across the United States? [In Progress.]
- Local and regional agroecosystem services: What are the impacts on ecosystem services (including landscape hydrology, soil health, biodiversity, pest control, and recreation) of biofuel production and grazing management strategies in the southeastern US? [In Progress.]
- Global water budget: What are the most important climate and terrestrial drivers of actual evapotranspiration rates in different global climate zones? [Water Resources Research. In Review.]
