Student Spotlight
Kevan Moffett : Graduate Student
Kevan's PhD research is on wetland hydroecology. She analyzes field measurements and numerical models of plant and soil hydrology to better understand coastal salt marsh ecosystem structure and function. Kevan's research interests broadly span hydrology and water resources as components of the earth system: hydroecology, physical and biological spatio-temporal patterns, surface/subsurface and land/ocean exchanges, land/atmosphere climate feedbacks, coastal process dynamics, physics-based environmental modeling, wetland function, and human/water systems.
