Megan Verfaillie

Megan Verfaillie is a Ph.D. student in Civil & Environmental Engineering at the University of New Hampshire (UNH) where she received a fellowship from the NSF-sponsored Convergent Arctic Research Perspectives and Education program. Megan’s master’s research at UNH was funded by the Arctic Domain Awareness Center in partnership with the UNH Center for Spills and Environmental Hazards to study oil spill modeling for improved response to arctic maritime spills. Her current research interests include cold region extreme weather disasters, snow hydrology, and remote sensing/unmanned aerial systems. Her research is motivated by the desire to advance data collection techniques and modeling tools to fill data gaps, inform decision making, and reduce risks. Megan often spends her weekends tending to her houseplants, playing with her cat, or spending time outdoors behind the lens of her camera.
