OverviewAI-generated summary

Leslie B. Massey's research has investigated environmental factors impacting water quality, including the fate and transport of antibiotics in Ozark streams and the effects of land use on nutrient levels in the Beaver Lake Watershed. Massey's work also examined the potential impacts of unconventional natural gas development on water chemistry in the South Fork Little Red River, finding no detectable changes. In addition to environmental research, Massey has contributed to scholarship on engineering education, focusing on mathematics preparation for engineering students through bridge programs and exploring the relationship between initial mathematics courses and graduation rates. Massey also has experience implementing innovative teaching models, such as hybrid-flipped classrooms in introductory engineering courses.
