Graduate Student, Kyle Wright, recipient of the 2023 Syvitski Student Modeler award
University of Texas, Austin

Kyle was awarded for his submission “From Grains to Plastics: Modeling Nourishment Patterns and Hydraulic Sorting of Fluvially Transported Materials in Deltas”, where an open-source, unified, reduced-complexity modeling framework for simulating the patterns of transport of a diverse range of suspended fluvial inputs influenced by vertical stratification and topographic steering is advanced. The work demonstrated a particularly high level of attention to FAIR modeling/data principles.


Kyle studies at the University of Texas, Austin; PhD Advisor Dr. Paola Passalacqua
