معرفی
Dr. Stephen Good is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biological & Ecological Engineering at Oregon State University (OSU). He holds a Ph.D. in Civil and Environmental Engineering from Princeton University (2013), an M.S. in Civil Engineering from Michigan Technological University (2008), and a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Carnegie Mellon University (2004). His research focuses on ecohydrology, remote sensing, and isotope biogeochemistry, with applications in understanding water cycling, vegetation dynamics, and environmental monitoring. Dr. Good has led major projects funded by NASA, NSF, and the Agricultural Research Foundation, addressing topics such as satellite-based water use efficiency, ecohydrological separation, and microbial hydrologic data encoding.
His teaching includes courses like BEE 313 (Ecohydrology), BEE 433/533 (Irrigation System Design), and BEE 512 (Physical Hydrology). He advises students such as Dawn Urycki and Catherine Finkenbiner, contributing to their research in hydrology and environmental engineering. Dr. Good has received notable awards, including the U.S. Fulbright Scholar (2022) and the Young Investigator Award (2011). His work integrates machine learning, stable isotopes, and microbial genomics to advance hydrological understanding and sustainable resource management.
Key research outputs include the NEON Daily Isotopic Composition of Environmental Exchanges (NEON-DICEE) dataset and studies on river microbiome dynamics. He collaborates widely, with recent projects exploring precision irrigation, solar energy optimization over croplands, and continental-scale ecohydrological modeling.
