I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Earth Sciences at the University of Delaware. I am interested in understanding how landscapes evolve in space and time, spanning alluvial fan, fluvial, coastal, and nearshore settings, including the feedbacks between landscape dynamics, climate, and vegetation. To do this, I leverage field, experimental, modelling, and remote sensing methods. Outside of work, I am an avid knitter, jump roper, and live music enthusiast.
It's just me right now. If any students or postdocs are interested in joining the group, please reach out to me at slyster@udel.edu to discuss opportunities!
