Audrey H. Sawyer studies how groundwater and surface water interact, including exchange between rivers, streams, and the ground (hyporheic exchange), coastal groundwater discharge to oceans, saltwater intrusion in aquifers, and nature-based approaches like floating wetlands for treating wastewater and removing nutrients. Her work combines field measurements (e.g., seepage meters, electrical resistivity tomography), flume experiments, satellite remote sensing, and modeling to understand water quality, quantity, and resilience of water systems, including drinking water infrastructure during extreme events.
