I am looking for a master student to study surface processes at UNLV Geoscience. Tentative thesis topics include:

• Hydrodynamics in semi-arid river-floodplain systems.

• Influences of shifting river flow regimes on water circulation over low-gradient, low-relief landscapes.

• River/floodplain geomorphic changes due to anthropogenic and/or natural causes.

If you are interested in the Fall 2026 admission, please contact me.
