Ashton Pihl
Ph.D. Student in Civil and Environmental Engineering, admitted Summer 2025
BioI am a second-year PhD Student in the Baker Coastal Lab researching surf-zone circulation generated by short-crested breaking waves. I am interested in studying the along-crest variability in energy dissipation, the unsteady structure associated with injected vertical and horizontal vorticity, and the evolution of vertical vorticity structures linked to the shoreward propagation of bores using laboratory experimental methods and theoretical analysis.

Carsten Prasse
Visiting Associate Professor, Civil and Environmental Engineering
BioMy research is focusing on the occurrence and fate of anthropogenic organic contaminants in the environment and the assessment of their environmental and human impacts. My research group is using analytical tools such as high-resolution mass spectrometry to identify previously unknown organic contaminants in different environmental matrices (drinking water, wastewater, river water, biosolids, soils, vegetables) and biospecimen (human blood and hurine). We are also developing new tools that can help prioritizing chemicals of highest concern in complex environmental mixtures.
