The work has focused on bottom liner systems for landfills, final cover systems for landfills and abandoned dumps, the containment of buried wastes or contaminated groundwater, and the cleanup of old waste disposal sites. He has also conducted research on various types of geosynthetic materials, with most of the work involving geosynthetic clay liners used for waste containment but some of the work involving geomembranes, geonets, and geotextiles.

His major research interests include two- and three-dimensional unstructured finite element mesh generation and model setup for geological applications, flow and reactive chemical transport modeling in saturated and unsaturated porous media, computational physics and fluid dynamics, and the interaction of tectonic plates in mantle convection.

He was head of the miscible flooding section at the Petroleum Recovery Research Center, New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, from 1978 to 1985; a research engineer at the Shell Development Company Bellaire Research Center from 1976 to 1978; and an assistant to the director, Office of Federal Activities, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, from 1970 to 1972.

Geological Survey Hydrogeophysics Branch from 1997 to 2000 and served on the faculty of The Pennsylvania State University from 2005 to 2012. Her research interests are focused on the physical process controlling solute and contaminant mass transport, including "long-tailed" distributions of solute arrival times in groundwater systems and during groundwater–surface water exchange, integration of geophysical imaging with flow and transport modeling, and establishing field-scale rock physics relations between geophysical and hydrogeologic parameters.
