Welcome to the website of the Watershed Sustainability Lab

 

Based in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of South Florida, we are a group of engineers and scientists interested in solving water management problems requiring interdisciplinary research on hydrology, water quality, ecosystems, and society.

The intent of this website is to provide a taste for the type of research we are dedicated to.

 

Research Questions:

  • How do we sustainably manage and develop river basins in the tropics and subtropics?

  • How do we integrate hydrology with human, energy, and natural systems?

  • How do we design river flows for society's well-being and ecological restoration?

  • What are the effects of water infrastructure on surrounding coastal and freshwater ecosystems?

  • How do environmental uncertainties and water operations affect streamflows and water quality?
