My group focuses on modeling the transport of sediment, nutrients and contaminants in the coastal ocean, including estuaries and continental shelves. The movement of this material can be difficult to predict because of the many processes that affect it, causing it to vary in time and space. My group therefore focuses on developing our capacity to model the coastal ocean, and on using numerical models to better understand and predict the transport of sediment, nutrients and contaminants in different environments.
