I have been advising PhD, MS, and undergraduate students. I have advised four PhD students and 18 MS students in Geography or Environmental Resources & Policy programs as a committee chair, and served as a committee member for over 20 other graduate students from a broad spectrum of majors, such as Civil and Environmental Engineering, Plant Biology, Public Health, Sociology, and Zoology. 

I expect new students with excellent programming experience (e.g., Python and Java) and advanced skills in machine learning and deep learning, geospatial analysis (e.g., remote sensing, cloud computing, Google Earth Engine), hydrological modeling (e.g., MODFLOW, SWAT), and advanced statistical skills (e.g., SEM). Students are expected to employ interdisciplinary and data-intensive methods to solve challenging geographic, social and environmental problems.
