Christine M Baker serves as Assistant Professor in Stanford University's Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering within the School of Engineering, leading the Baker Coastal Lab which operates under the Bob & Norma Street Environmental Fluid Mechanics Laboratory and maintains affiliations with both the School of Engineering and Doerr School of Sustainability.
She earned her Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering from Oregon State University followed by Master's and Ph.D. degrees in Civil & Environmental Engineering from the University of Washington.
Professor Baker's research concentrates on coastal engineering and environmental fluid mechanics at the land-ocean interface, integrating laboratory experimentation, numerical modeling, and remote sensing to investigate wave dynamics, sediment transport mechanisms, and coastal hazards under climate change. Her work specifically examines shallow-water wave breaking, nearshore circulation patterns, surf-shelf transport processes, and extreme event impacts on coastal morphology.
The Baker Coastal Lab actively recruits students and postdocs specializing in wave dynamics, sediment transport processes, and extreme-event coastal hazards, operating within Stanford's interdisciplinary environmental fluid mechanics research ecosystem.
