OverviewAI-generated summary

Karessa G. De La Paz's research focuses on environmental science, specifically examining nutrient dynamics and sediment transport in aquatic systems and watersheds. Her work investigates the influence of environmental factors, such as wetting and drying cycles, on nutrient mobilization. She has studied the relationship between nutrients and discharge in the Brush Creek Watershed in Northwest Arkansas and analyzed sediment transport within this region. Her publications also address watershed-scale controls on sediment loss from unpaved roads. De La Paz collaborates with researchers from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville and the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, including Shannon L. Speir, Kathleen Cutting, and Alana Strauss.
