Hard at work in Santa Barbara's Mission Creek (Santa Barbara, California), testing water quality

               
     

      In 2009 I am working on sea leve rise in California and its
      effect on coastal freshwater aquifers with Dr. T. Pingel and graduate student
      Elizabeth Garcia. I have several other interesting projects underway.           
       During the Fall Quarter 2009 I am teaching Environmental Hydrology (upper division):
      Geography 112, this is a comprehensive review of the physical, chemical,
      biological properties of natural waters and of treatment process for potable water, sewage, and
      contaminated ground water. At the graduate level I am teaching a course on Water Resources
      Systems, with applications to water supply, groundwater, flood control, reservoir operation,
      hydropower generation.
