From page 115...
... His research interests are in We basic understanding of coupled surface, subsurface, and atmospheric hydrologic systems that may form the bases for enhanced hydrologic predictability. Specifically, he conducts research in lan~atmosphere interactions, remote sensing, physical hydrology, operational hydrology, hydrometeorology, groundwatersurface water interaction, and hiDsiope hydrology.

From page 116...
... Until recently, he was director of Everglades Department, South Florida Water Management District, and was executive officer for the Florida Bay Science Program immediately prior to that. An expert in ecohydrology of wetlands and environmental science, he has coordinated extensive estuarine and wetlands research programs in South Florida.

... His research focuses on surface water and energy budgets, regional and global climate change, and medium- and long-range weather prediction using modeling and observation. He was a member of the NRC's Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment (GEWEX)

From page 118...
... He studies fluid flow and transport in permeable media, using field and laboratory experiments and mathematical models. [n the past this has included studies of the movement of water, nonaqueous phase liquids, dissolved chemicals, colloids, and bacteria through porous, fractured, and faulted media.
