New paper! Assessment of hydrological parameter uncertainty versus climate projection spread on urban streamflow and floods

I’m super excited to share that recent PhD graduate Zia Ul Hassan published his first paper, and it’s a big one. The effects of climate change will continue to intensify over the coming decades, with bigger and more intense rainstorms. In urban watersheds, that means more stormwater reaching urban streams, …

Announcing STORMS!

I’m pleased to announce that I’m leading a new multi-institution NSF-funded project investigating how stormwater decision making translates to environmental outcomes at the watershed scale. I’m collaborating with Aditi Bhaskar (Colorado State University), Kelly Turner (UCLA), and Dave Costello (Kent State University) on the project we’ve christened STORMS, for STream …

Quantifying the influences of stormwater control measures on urban headwater streamflow

The Watershed Hydrology Lab will be at the Geological Society of America meeting in November in Baltimore. Anne will be giving an invited talk in the Urban Geochemistry session (T32) on Sunday, November 1st at 9 am in BCC room 308. Here’s what she’ll be talking about: Quantifying the influences …

Stormwater control measures modify event-based stream temperature dynamics in urbanized headwaters

Next week, the Watershed Hydrology Lab will be well represented at the CUAHSI 2014 Biennial Colloquium. We’ll be presenting four posters, so here come the abstracts… Stormwater control measures modify event-based stream temperature dynamics in urbanized headwaters Grace Garner1, Anne Jefferson2*, Sara McMillan3, Colin Bell4 and David M.
