Christopher Haring, PhD, PG, CFM

Research Physical Scientist, Lead for Ewn Fluvial Chapters, Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory, ERDC

Bio

Dr. Haring is a research physical scientist with the River Engineering Branch at ERDC, having over thirty years of experience in hydrology, hydraulics, river engineering, restoration and stabilization, and fluvial geomorphology with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and private consulting.  His work experience includes studies in hydrologic and hydraulic analysis of watersheds, geomorphic watershed assessments, riverbed and bank stabilization studies and projects using grade control structures, redirective measures and Engineering with Nature-Natural and Nature-based Features (EWN-NNBF).  He also serves on the USACE River Engineering Committee that provides assistance to USACE Districts on solving river water resource and river engineering problems.  Current research projects include developing GIS-based, watershed analysis assessment tool (FluvialGeomorph) and the channel morphology forecasting tool, Future River Analysis and Management Evaluation (FRAME).  In addition, Dr. Haring is leading the working group to update the USACE Streambank Manual with EWN-NNBF focus.  He is the USACE lead for developing the international guidelines for implementing EWN-NNBF.  He also leads geomorphic and river engineering research and studies, developing and teaching NNBF training courses and workshops for the Corps of Engineers, and other federal, state, and local agencies throughout the U.S.
