 Illinois State Geological Survey
Praveen Kumar Water and Land Stewardship

Study of complexity in hydrologic processes including hydroclimatology, ecohydrology, geomorphology, and hydroinformatics.

 Civil and Environmental Engineering
William Shilts Water and Land Stewardship

Research Interests include configuration, dynamics, and geological constraints of the North American continental ice sheet; environmental geochemistry; glacial sedimentology and stratigraphy; neotectonic methods for detecting prehistoric seismic events, particularly in lakes; high Arctic glacier sedimentation; sedimentation and genesis of eskers; arctic and temperate limnology, especially geophysical methods of studying physical limnology, subbottom and sidescan acoustic profiles, and geochemical profiles of cores as indicators of the relative importance of anthropogenic and natural sources

 Prairie Research Institute
Alison Anders Water and Land Stewardship

Studies interactions between climate, erosion and tectonics with a focus on orographic precipitation and landscape evolution. Active areas of research include:

  1. measurement and modeling of climatological precipitation patterns at scales from 1km – 100km
  2. characterization of erosion rates in areas of spatially variable precipitation, and,
  3. numerical landscape evolution modeling.

Field areas include the Olympic Mountains of Washington State, the Western Ghats of India, the Swiss Alps, and the Colorado Plateau.
