Biography

Brian A. Ebel is a hydrologist who uses field and laboratory measurements combined with numerical modeling to understand hydrologic processes and problems in disturbed landscapes. His investigations of Disturbance Hydrology seek to understand the changes in the quality and quantity of water resources and water-related hazards to human lives and infrastructure after landscape disturbances. Most of his recent work has focused on wildfire impacts on hydrology in the western US, including Alaska. Brian's efforts span multiple scales, investigating the plot- and catchment-scale processes that dictate the integrated hydrologic responses (e.g. flash floods) observed at watershed scales. Additional topical interests include hydrologically-driven slope failure, soil physics, cold-regions hydrology, and surface-water/groundwater interaction.
