Bio/Research

Professor Steenhuis’ research is carried out over a trillion-fold scale range, from transport of micro particles in soil pores to the effect of human interventions in the landscape on transport of water and sediment in large river basins. His research requires an understanding of how the landscape and people affect the water, sediment, nutrient, and other chemical flows in the landscape. His research program currently emphasizes the fate of agricultural nutrients and sediment transport in areas like in Black Creek in upstate New York and in cooperation with the School of Civil and Water Resources housed at Bahir Dar University in the Blue Nile Basin of Ethiopia.
