Robin Glas
Robin is a hydrologist for the USGS New York Water Science Center.
I am interested in the relationship between anthropogenic disturbances and natural streamflow and groundwater fluctuations. My research focuses on characterizing these relationships using statistical approaches, as well as time series and geospatial / geophysical data.

Methods for Estimation Flood Magnitude and Frequency at Ungaged Streams in New York, excluding Long Island
Summary: Extreme flooding can threaten life and property in flood-prone areas, as well as cause damage to critical infrastructure along roadways and canals. The effective management of these areas, and appropriate design of structures along rivers and streams, relies on understanding the magnitude and frequency of floods at gaged locations, and the ability to estimate these data at...
An Analysis of Trends in the Magnitude of Floods in Urbanized Watersheds on Long Island, New York
Summary: This study aims to do a thorough analysis of trends in peak streamflows on Long Island. Reliable information about the magnitude and frequency of floods is essential for flood insurance studies, flood-plain management, and the design of transportation and water-conveyance infrastructure, such as roads, bridges, culverts, dams, and levees. Federal, State, regional, and local...
