Background and Research Interests

Georgianne Moore, Ph.D., is an associate professor of ecohydrology and plant ecophysiology in the Department of Ecosystem Science and Management at Texas A&M University, where she teaches courses in ecosystem restoration. Her research program has recently focused on (1) tropical forests whose productivity may be impacted by wet leaf conditions, (2) Texas ecosystems experiencing tree mortality from drought, (3) forests that have experienced stand-replacing wildfires, (4) rangelands subject to encroachment by woody plants, and (5) floodplains invaded by non-native species.

Dr. Moore specializes in ecohydrology and seeks to understand how ecosystem management relates to the water cycle – by changing vegetation type, amount, and structure. Distinctly interdisciplinary, her research is driven by science questions, spans many types of ecosystems, and utilizes a variety of measurement tools. She primarily studies how altered hydroclimate affects ecosystems, but also relates impacts of human-induced land use changes to the water cycle.
