A macrosystem study with NSF funding, joining together a diverse group of scientists, researchers, and graduate students from Mongolia, Europe and the United States. Investigating river systems of three ecoregions of Mongolia and the United States from 6 field expeditions over 4 field seasons. My role is to investigate hydrogeomorphology and cross-scale linkages of reach-scale physical habitat to valley-scale morphology collected in situ and remotely, respectively.Manage a small team… Show more A macrosystem study with NSF funding, joining together a diverse group of scientists, researchers, and graduate students from Mongolia, Europe and the United States. Investigating river systems of three ecoregions of Mongolia and the United States from 6 field expeditions over 4 field seasons. My role is to investigate hydrogeomorphology and cross-scale linkages of reach-scale physical habitat to valley-scale morphology collected in situ and remotely, respectively.Manage a small team (5) during expeditions in Mongolia and the Western United States conducting physical habitat and geomorphology characterizations. Adapted techniques to increase efficiency and accuracy of data collectionLead the data management and analysis of sampled data to assess characterization and provide framework for other discipline’s analyses. Conduct multiple statistical and multivariate analyses to assess similarities, relationships, and variability of morphological characteristics at multiple scalesDevelop analysis frameworks to evaluate cross-scale relationships between valley morphology, watershed, and geomorphologic characteristics.Provide written assessment of statistical results and relations across multiple spatial scales.Create maps and detailed visualizations of analysis results for publications and presentations.Train and mentor undergraduate students in data analyses and collection methods.
