Oveview: I have 24 years of international experience leading and participating on teams that characterize, monitor, and model the ecological, geophysical, and water-resource (quality and quantity in surface and ground water) response to natural and anthropogenic stresses. Because of limited information and nonuniqueness in these systems, I personally develop and apply methods to better characterize conceptual models and quantify their model and prediction uncertainty. In addition to collaborative problem solving, I enjoy writing and publishing technical articles, teaching university courses, providing workshops, and mentoring students.
Work experience: U.S. Geological Survey, U.S. Bureau of Mines, various universities, and international organizations.
Research experience: development and application of numerical models; improved estimation (or calibration), regularization, and validation approaches; and techniques to quantify model and predictive uncertainty.
Teaching experience: Colorado college, Hohai University, Universidade de Estadual Campinas, Universidade de Brasilia, Universidad de Centroamericana, University of Colorado, University of Kuopio; and various workshops
International experience: Argentina, Brazil, Bulgaria, China, El Salvador, Finland, Georgia, Guatemala, Haiti, Hungary, Israel, Jordan, Kyrgyz Republic, Mauritania, Palestine, Romania, Turkey, European Union, Middle East Peace Process, NATO security
