Description
Estuaries are one of the most productive ecosystems on Earth and humans rely on them in a myriad of ways. So understanding how they function, how we impact them, how we can more sustainably use their ecosystem services is vital to coastal communities. We are focused on using modern oceanographic tools like satellite imagery, numerical models, and buoys/sensors to help communities make better and more sustainable decisions around fisheries, aquaculture, energy, and pollution.
