L. C. Bowling studies water and agricultural systems, focusing on how drainage, irrigation, and water management practices affect streamflow, nutrient pollution, and greenhouse gas emissions in farmland and watersheds. Much of the work combines field measurements and hydrologic modeling to examine issues like subsurface drainage design, nitrate loss from farm fields, wetland methane and nitrous oxide emissions, and water policy in regions such as the U.S. Corn Belt and Arequipa, Peru. The research often links local water and land management decisions to broader environmental and policy outcomes.
