Assistant Professor, Civil & Environmental Engineering
Dr. Talke's research focuses on tidal processes, storm surge, mixing and sediment transport in estuaries, rivers, and the ocean. Talke uses both cutting edge data--satellite images or infrared video-- or recently re-discovered archival tide data extending back to 1844 to obtain a better understanding of how estuaries, rivers, and coastal regions function. In particular, Talke is interested in long-term, century scale changes to estuaries. Understanding long term trends in tides, storm surge, sea-level, and river flow, and discerning their local or climate-related causes, can help coastal regions plan for the future. Talke joined Portland State in 2010.
