Bill Capehart, Institute of Atmospheric Sciences
Biographical Information and Research Overview
I am an Associate Professor and Chair
of
Atmospheric Sciences at
the South Dakota School of Mines and
Technology's
Institute
of Atmospheric Sciences. I received my M.S. and Ph.D. in Meteorology
from Penn State and my B.S. in Atmospheric
Sciences from the The University of
North Carolina at Asheville.
My research interests are the remote
sensing and modeling of surface features and land-surface processes
with emphasis on applications in operational meteorology, numerical weather
and climate prediction, and land-surface hydrology.
In particular, I am interested in
developing tools to examine the role of land cover, vegetation and subsurface
processes on the hydrologic cycle. Much of my work in this area involves
modeling of hydrologic processes in the soil, on the land surface (runoff and
stream flow) and below the surface, as well as the impact of the transfers of
moisture and heat between surface and atmosphere (and the subsequent
feedbacks at the weather and climate scales).
Additionally, I am involved in scientific
visualization in the geosciences and engineering, as well as investigating the
applicability of GRID-
based technologies towards hydrometeorological problem
domains.
Courses and Syllabi
My Class Materials and Syllabi are kept here.
