Active Team Members
Nana Afua Gyau Frimpong
Nana is a M.S. student at the University of Wyoming in civil engineering. Her research interests are in post-wildfire soil sealing processes in the southwestern United States forests. She is conducting laboratory rainfall simulation experiments to investigate soil sealing mechanisms immediately following a fire.

Adrian Marziliano
Adrian is a PhD student in the Department of Civil, Construction, and Environmental Engineering at the University of New Mexico. He is interested in remote sensing and snowpack monitoring for water resource applications. His current research focuses on assessing the use of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) snow data products for water supply estimates in the Navajo River catchment, upstream from a San Juan-Chama Project diversion dam. His research is funded by the Bureau of Reclamation.

Kori Mooney
Kori is a Master’s student in the Civil Engineering Department using Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) to understand temporal and spatial variability in mountain snowpacks. She will be streamlining data processing of dielectric permittivity with depth measurements to estimate continuous snow properties along transects at Grand Mesa, CO; Little Cottonwood Canyon, UT; and Dry Lake, CO.

Group Alumni
Mikael Schlumpf
Mikael graduated with an MS in Civil, Construction, and Environmental Engineering at the University of New Mexico in 2022. His research topic focused on the influence of liquid water on snow strength. After graduating, Mikael accepted a position as a junior water resource engineer for Matrix Solutions in Calgary.
