Dr. Christine
E. Hatch
I completed my Ph.D. in Hydrogeology
at the University of California, Santa Cruz, and am
currently a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University
of Nevada, Reno, and an Associate Researcher at the
University of California, Santa Cruz.
My doctoral research focused on surface
water - groundwater interaction, a sub-discipline of
Hydrogeology that has seen increased interest in recent
years due to a desire to better quantify our water resources.
Streambeds are often fast pathways
connecting surface waters to underlying aquifers, and
flow through the streambed, seepage, can affect the
amount or quality of water in the stream (if flow is
up/ out) or the aquifer (if flow is in/ downward).
More specifically, I have developed a new method that
utilizes the natural diurnal temperature signal in
streams (which penetrates into the streambed) to assess
the flow of water into or out of streambed sediments. This
work is published in Water Resources Research (PDF
file) .
I look forward to seeking academic
employment in hydrogeology and related fields in the
very near future.
