Research Interests

Dr. Frisbee’s research focuses on groundwater/surface-water interactions with an emphasis on quantifying how groundwater responds to the effects of climate change and land-use/land-cover change. These perturbations propagate through the aquifer system and ultimately impact surface-water systems and their associated ecosystems. It’s critical that we improve our understanding on the time scales and magnitudes of these responses. His research incorporates field hydrogeology, hydrogeochemistry, and isotope hydrology. He frequently collaborates with geomorphologists, geophysicists, ecologists, and microbiologists to address projects ranging from groundwater controls on geomorphology to relationships between groundwater chemistry and aquatic ecology and microbiology.
