Her research focusses on understanding evaporation by using novel measuring techniques like Distributed Temperature Sensing and stable water isotopes. In 2015 Miriam was awarded with a VENI from NWO-ALW on this topic. Furthermore, Miriam supervises several BSc and MSc thesis-students and is involved in the courses: Hydrological Processes and Measurements (CIE4440), Hydrologie (CTB2420), and the minor course "Meten aan Water" (CT3412).
