The FLOW Lab investigates the vibrant relationship between rivers, terrain, biology, and drainage basins. Our research examines the interplay of physical and biological forces that define river systems over temporal and spatial scales. We analyze the societal impacts of shifting flood cycles and the way rising oceans reconfigure coastal fluvial habitats.
From Oecology to Ecology
The O in FLOW honors Oecology, a concept introduced by Ernst Haeckel back in 1866. This discipline eventually became Ecology, focusing on the intricate links between living beings and the settings they call home.
