Welcome to our Lab!

Our main research interest is to improve mechanistic understanding of flow and transport processes in agricultural and mountainous landscapes in California and across the globe. We are studying water and biogeochemical cycles through ground-based measurements, stochastic analysis and numerical modeling. We are interested in identifying shifts and thresholds in the hydrology and biogeochemistry of these systems to advance our predictive ability and to support planning and resource management decisions. As part of the UC Davis Hydrologic Sciences Graduate program (HSGG) our education program emphasizes hydrologic processes, contaminant fate and transport in surface waters and the vadose zone, field instrumentation for sampling and monitoring water, constituents and isotopes, snow and energy balance components, and climate-change impact assessment.

Current opportunities

We are seeking a highly motivated and enthusiastic individual to assist in laboratory and field work within the Dahlke Lab as Jr. Specialist. More details can be found in this position description.
