Current research: 

My research focuses on process hydrology, notably on how water (and what it carries) moves within and between different landscape compartments (i.e., soil, plants, wetlands, rivers). I combine field, big-data mining, numerical mapping, and numerical modeling approaches to study hydrological processes from the plot scale (1 m by 1 m) to the large (transboundary) watershed scale. While I typically use concepts and tools from several hydrology sub-disciplines (e.g., ecohydrology, hydrobiogeochemistry, and hydropedology), I also enjoy borrowing tools from other disciplines such as ecology, computer science or brain neuroscience to apply them to hydrological questions. I work not only in forested environments but also in landscapes where natural hydrological processes have been significantly altered by human activities or human infrastructure. One major thrust of my research is the characterization of ecohydrological systems as highly connected and complex systems, to improve our understanding of water dynamics in the context of land use change and climate change.
