From page 184...
... More specifically, his current research is in landatmosphere interactions, remote sensing, physical hydrology, operational hydrology, hydrometeorology, groundwater­surface water interaction, and hillslope hydrology. He was founding chair of the WSTB's Committee on Hydrologic Science, and has served on the WSTB and the Committee to Assess the National Weather Service Advanced Hydrologic Prediction Service Initiative program.

From page 185...
... His research interests include groundwater contaminant transport; groundwater basin characterization and management; geologic and geostatistical characterization of subsurface heterogeneity for improved pollutant transport modeling; numerical modeling of groundwater flow and contaminant transport; the role of molecular diffusion in contaminant transport and remediation; longterm sustainability of regional groundwater quality; and vulnerability of aquifers to non-point-source groundwater contaminants. He was the 2002 Birdsall-Dreiss Distinguished Lecturer awarded by the Geological Society of America Hydrogeology Division.
