Carrie Davis Todd

Carrie Davis Todd is a Professor and Environmental Science Program Coordinator at Baldwin Wallace University, where she teaches introductory geology and environmental science courses alongside advanced topics in soils, geomorphology, and hydrology. Her role emphasizes field-based research and learner-centered teaching methods, integrating hands-on data collection into her curriculum.

• Ph.D., Purdue University
• M.S., Ohio University
• B.A., Carleton College

Her research focuses on the geomorphology and hydrology of small watersheds, examining how landscape evolution and human modifications affect these systems. Projects include stream restoration assessments, stratigraphy studies, and fossil identification, alongside geoscience education research to enhance teaching practices.

Her publications highlight interdisciplinary approaches to watershed management and historical flood analysis, with recent works exploring the 1889 Johnstown flood and pedagogical innovations in geology education. Themes span climate change impacts, hydrological modeling, and STEM integration in K-12 settings.

She collaborates extensively with Baldwin Wallace students on research, co-authoring presentations on topics like biostratigraphic correlation and acid mine drainage studies. These collaborations often involve fieldwork and environmental monitoring in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Michigan.
