Dr. Safeeq Khan



Abstract. Developing water and sediment budgets are essential for managing water quantity and quality. In this talk I will highlight the usefulness of long-term research catchments on improving our understanding of the hydrological and sediment stores and fluxes under a changing climate and land use patterns. The first half of the talk will focus on issues and uncertainties associated with water budget closure at multiple scales. In the second half, I will focus on estimating background erosion rates and sediment sources from intensive sampling across and elevational gradient. I will conclude discussing the implications of forest management and changing precipitation regime on sediment and water budget.


About Dr. Safeeq Khan. Dr. Safeeq Khan is a Cooperative Extension Specialist in water and watershed sciences at University of California Division of Agriculture and Natural Resources (UC ANR) and an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering at University of California, Merced. His research broadly focuses on understanding interactions between climate, regolith, and terrestrial ecosystem in the Earth’s critical zone. Dr. Khan’s research relies heavily on field experiments and data-driven numerical models as research tools to inform land and water management. He works with state and federal land managers, water agencies, non-governmental organizations, and other stakeholders on co-producing climate adaptation research and management solutions. He is leading cutting-edge research on developing alternative forest management and land use solutions for building watershed resilience.



We hope you'll join us! Have a great week!

Kind regards,

Enviro-lunch coordinators Anna Jurusik and Teamrat Ghezzehei, PhD.

ESS-190 coordinators Justin Yeakel, PhD., Jorge Armando Montiel Molina, PhD., and Carolin Frank, PhD.



P.S. Thank you so much to our last speaker, Dr. Robin Trayer for his wonderful talk, "Using Stable Isotopes to Investigate Fossil Ecosystems: Case Studies from the Cenozoic!"

What: An informal and collegial session where faculty, visiting scholars, postdoctoral researchers, staff, and students have the opportunity to discuss their past and/or current research, and more. This year we welcome 80 undergraduate students enrolled in ESS-190 to join the conversation! Blockedhttps://soilphysics.ucmerced.edu/envirolunch.htmlBlocked (website under construction, please pardon any errors)

When: Mondays 12:00p-1:15 pm (PST)

Where: We will host Enviro-Lunch virtually via ZOOM this semester

Who: Our audience typically spans across natural sciences from faculty, students, and staff, but also attracts engineers, social scientists, and more.

How: A ~30-40 min for presentation with ~15-20 min for Q&A/discussion over Zoom. This year we are coordinating with ESS-190, an undergraduate seminar series that will interface with the seminar. (note: only ESS-190 students will meet in person)
