Hydrodynamics, hydraulics & hydrology — from rivers to coasts, surface to subsurface.
The Lab
The FLUX Lab develops mechanistic, multi-scale numerical models that connect hydraulic and hydrological processes across the terrestrial–aquatic interface — synthesizing surface–subsurface flow, sediment morphodynamics, reactive transport, and ecological response.
We combine computational fluid dynamics, hydrologic modeling, high-performance computing, and laboratory/field measurement to understand how water, sediment, heat, and solutes move across surface water and subsurface — from the hyporheic zone to the critical zone — and to inform the management of natural and engineered water systems.

Research Interests
Research Program
Coupled hydro-biogeochemical-ecological frameworks that quantify how floods, droughts, and hurricanes drive ecological response and long-term ecosystem health.
How human decisions in urban development, land use, and renewable-energy infrastructure reshape surface runoff, groundwater recharge, and nutrient cycles.
Nutrient mass transfer and momentum exchange across the sediment–water interface, including the effects of vegetation, animal activity, and pollutants on bedforms and benthic fluxes.
Join the Lab
The FLUX Lab is recruiting graduate students (Ph.D. and M.S.) at Texas A&M who are excited about environmental fluid mechanics, hydrology, and computational modeling. Backgrounds in civil/environmental engineering, earth/geosciences, applied math, or scientific computing are all welcome.
