How I taught Soil Moisture and Infiltration online in spring 2020
This post is part of a series of posts in which I provide the details of each unit I taught post-transitioning to online in Spring 2020 in the Watershed Hydrology class at Kent State University. For more context about the … Continue reading
Moving Watershed Hydrology online in 3 days: how I did it, how it went, and how I’m working to make it better next time
When Kent State “pivoted to online” in mid-March, I was about half-way through my Watershed Hydrology class. For context, this class typically has about 20-25 undergraduate students, from geology, environmental studies, and conservation biology majors, and about 5-8 graduate students … Continue reading
A Riverine Flooding Cookbook, Volume 1: Meteorological Floods
Meteorological floods are closely tied to the four mechanisms of atmospheric lifting (convection, frontal systems, convergence, and orographic) that produce cooling, saturation, and precipitation. As climate change warms the atmosphere, enabling it to hold more water, and shifts atmospheric circulation patterns, there is the potential for more severe flooding and flooding in new places to result from any of these lifting mechanisms.

Zooming out: how climate and landscapes control streamflow generation
As you watched the videos about flow generation mechanisms, one of the things that you should have noticed is that climate and landscape characteristics influence the way water gets to streams. (And the way water gets to streams influences the … Continue reading
How flow generation controls stream hydrographs
The streamflow generation mechanisms working in the landscape control how quickly the stream responds to precipitation – and how quickly the stream responds to precipitation controls how high the peak flow gets. Continue reading
