Institution : University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science (UMCES)
Department : Chesapeake Biological Laboratory (CBL)
Expertise : Biogeochemistry, Climate/Weather Impact Analysis (biochemistry and living resources), Coastal/Estuarine Sampling and Monitoring, Dead Zones, Ecological Modeling, Ecology, Nutrient Cycling, Nutrient Pollution, Oceanography, Seagrass, Water Quality
Chesapeake Management Areas : Water Quality, Climate Resiliency
Research interests : Coastal marine ecology, including eutrophication, nutrient cycling, and dissolved oxygen dynamics. We are especially interested in the interactions between biological, chemical, and physical processes in coastal ecosystems. We use a combination of experimental efforts, historical data analysis, and coupled biogeochemical-hydrodynamic modeling studies to examine these aspects of estuarine and coastal aquatic science.
