Water Resources Research Focus:

Dr. Yuch Ping Hsieh’s research in water resources spans multiple critical areas aimed at understanding and improving water quality, hydrodynamics, and ecosystem sustainability. Key areas of focus include. Hydrodynamics of Isolated Wetlands: Investigating how isolated wetlands reflect the health and resiliency of watersheds in North Florida. This research is crucial for understanding wetland hydrology and its implications for ecosystem management and conservation efforts. Coastal Environment Indicators: Identifying chemical and biological markers that indicate changes in coastal environments, with a particular focus on the effects of freshwater inputs, sea-level rise, and metal toxicity. This work is essential for predicting and mitigating the impacts of environmental changes on coastal ecosystems. Sulfate Reduction and Metal Toxicity Mitigation: Studying sulfur chemistry and sulfate reduction processes in wetlands and sediments to understand and mitigate the bioavailability and toxicity of heavy metals. This research helps develop strategies for environmental remediation in contaminated aquatic systems. Phosphorus Dynamics in Wetlands: Investigating the movement and transformation of phosphorus in wetland ecosystems. This research aims to enhance our understanding of nutrient cycling and inform management practices to protect water quality in wetland areas. Salt Barren Formation and Sea-Level Rise: Exploring the mechanisms behind salt barren formation in tidal marshes as an indicator of sea-level rise. This research provides insights into the effects of climate change on coastal environments and helps develop adaptive management strategies. Field Methods for Soil Erosion and Sustainability: Developing and refining field methods for measuring soil and nutrient erosion, with an emphasis on realistic, non-intrusive techniques. These methods are critical for assessing soil conservation practices and their effectiveness in protecting water resources. Agricultural Air Quality and Water Resources: Examining the effects of agricultural practices, such as prescribed burning, on air quality and subsequent impacts on water resources. This research aims to balance agricultural productivity with environmental protection and public health.
