Research in EFMH addresses a broad range of topics related to air, surface and ground water flows, and hydrology and water resources, including:
EFMH research employs state-of-the-art field equipment to measure flow and transport both in the field and in the laboratory. A significant amount of effort involves the development of new and improved laboratory and in-situ and remote-sensing field measurement techniques. Laboratory research is conducted in the Bob and Norma Street Environmental Fluid Mechanics Laboratory..
In addition to experimental work, research in EFMH focuses extensively on development of accurate and efficient methods for the simulation of flows in the surface and subsurface and in indoor and urban environments, and in this regard there is extensive collaboration with the Institute for Computational and Mathematical Engineering
