Dr. Frank Heitmuller

Associate Professor

Bio

My research interests are focused on geomorphology, sedimentology, and near-surface hydrology of fluvial and estuarine systems along the northern Gulf (of Mexico) Coast. As a geographically-trained geologist, I collaborate with geologists, geographers, ecologists, and engineers to understand abiotic dynamics affecting ecosystems and policies for land use and hazard mitigation.
