Biography

Vanessa Wong's research explores spatial-temporal interactions among soils, sediments, and water across a range of scales. Her work focuses on the role of soil-surface water and shallow groundwater processes from the micron scale to landscape scale, aiming to understand the biogeochemical processes that occur in diverse environments. She has collaborated with industry and government organizations at local, state, and federal levels to enhance catchment management strategies. Her specific research interests include assessing the effects of land degradation, remediation of degraded environments, soil organic carbon dynamics, understanding the hydrology-geomorphology-soil-water-biogeochemistry interactions, and the effects of waste application on agricultural land. Additionally, she is involved in developing new techniques for mapping soil and shallow groundwater properties in coastal floodplain environments and examining the influences of climate change and variability on these processes. Wong's expertise aligns with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, contributing toward sustainable land and water management.
