Current research of the faculty in the program includes effects of sea level rise on ecological changes in coastal marsh systems, application of marine reserve design models to estuarine systems, landscape approaches to benthic ecology, biogeochemistry of low oxygen environments, population ecology of horseshoe crabs, and the hydrogeology of karst environments. There are also research opportunities in molecular ecology. Detailed information can be obtained by contacting:
