Dr. Charbeneau's research and teaching interests include groundwater hydrology, subsurface fate and transport of hazardous and radioactive wastes, groundwater pollution, dose and risk assessment, multiphase flow, and mathematical modeling. Recently funded research includes fate and transport of hazardous organic chemicals in the vadose zone, risk and performance assessment for a low level radioactive waste disposal facility, and evaluation of water quality impacts from highway construction and runoff through monitoring and laboratory investigations of performance of temporary and permanent pollution control structures and sediment traps.
