Research Interests
Michael (Mickey) Rush is a dynamic leader, hydrologic modeler, writer, and听educator. He brings a balance of computational expertise, field research experience, and leadership skills to projects related to water resources science and management. His Ph.D thesis research uses coupled thermo-hydrologic modeling to understand how changing mountain snowpacks may contribute to changes in seasonally frozen ground formation, and to what extent such frozen soils shift the timing and magnitude of subsurface flow.听Through his听research, he听strives to engage local communities, serve the needs of stakeholders, and effectively communicate technical information in English and Spanish to non-scientific audiences.听
