Welcome to my new webpage made in R.

The work we do in the laboratory covers two broad areas of research

1. Bigeochemistry of streams, lakes, and tile-drained agricultural fields
   • Watershed management effects on stream water quality
     
   • Nitrate removal of constructed wetlands
     
   • Cover crop reduction of nitrate losses
     
   • Monitoring water quality in streams entering two drinking water reservoirs
2. Crayfish ecology and invasions
   • Invasion dynamics in streams
   • Performance and behavior in flow
   • Morphological differences in response to flow

Open graduate student positions: My laboratory is currently working on one primary project:

1. Role of cover crops in reducing nutrient loss from a new experimental plot system using a new cash cover crop.The aspects of this project we will be working on are:
   • Soil quality and nutrient content
     
   • porewater nitrogen concentrations with and without cover crops
     
   • weed diversity and biomass associated with cover crops compared to reference
   • honeybee use of the cover crop
   • nutrient loss from tile water
