Ray Kostachuk’s research focuses on collaborative field experiments on sedimentary processes in rivers, estuaries and lakes. He is currently working on sand and gravel dunes in rivers and density currents in glacial lakes, developing and applying instrumentation for fluvial research, including the acoustic Doppler current profiler (aDcp), acoustic Doppler velocimeter (aDv), laser in-situ sediment scattering transmissometer (LISST) and multibeam echo sounder (MBES).
