Early life and education
editTetzlaff studied geography at the University of Potsdam.[1] She moved to the Leibniz University of Hannover for graduate studies, where she earned a diploma in Landscape Ecology and Physical Geography. Her master's dissertation involved investigating runoff generation and groundwater recharge at Ripple Creek Pass.[citation needed] Tetzlaff moved to the University of Freiburg as a doctoral researcher, undertaking a hydrological assessment of flow dynamics in urban rivers. In her PhD, she performed an ecohydrological assessment of the impact of urbanisation on discharge regimes.[2] After completing her doctorate, Tetzlaff was appointed as a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Aberdeen.[1] During her postdoc she became interested in aquatic ecohydrology, studying hydrological influences on the ecology of Atlantic salmon.[2]
Research and career
editIn 2007, Tetzlaff joined the faculty at the University of Aberdeen. She was promoted to Full Professor of Landscape Hydrology in 2010. Aberdeen awarded her a Doctor of Science in Hydrology in 2013.[1]
Tetzlaff's research involves ecohydrology,[3] the connection between rivers and landscapes, and stable isotope hydrology.[2][4] The stable isotopes can be used to better understand waters; specifically to quantify the internal processes of water storage, transmission and release.[3]
