Featured Research Areas
Dr. Arias’s research centers on how hydrology, ecology, climate, and human water infrastructure interact in complex watershed systems. His lab investigates these coupled processes using field observations, ecological engineering, and advanced computational modeling
Watershed Hydrology
The lab studies how water, sediment, and nutrients move through large river basins and how human infrastructure alters natural hydrologic regimes.
Ecohydrology & Ecosystem Response
It examines how changes in water levels, flow patterns, and climate conditions shape the structure, productivity, and resilience of aquatic ecosystems.
Water‑Quality & HAB Modeling
The group develops coupled models that simulate nutrient cycling and predict harmful algal blooms across watershed, lake, and estuary systems.
