Curriculum Vitae

Research Interests

I am interested in various practical and theoretical problems related to groundwater, such as the effect of pumping on nearby wells and potential contamination by a landfill or leaking underground storage tanks. I do hydrogeological investigations with geological mapping, lab column experiments, slug/bail and pumping tests, geostatistical analysis, and groundwater modeling. I also conduct theoretical research to study the effects of physical, chemical, and biological heterogeneities of geological material on water flow and chemical transport in soils and aquifers.
