Interdisciplinary Research in Earth Science, Long Island Sound

Integration of new remote sensing tools for characterization of tidal marsh area extent, vegetation communities and inundation regimes, and advanced retrievals of estuarine biological and biogeochemical processes with multi-disciplinary ecological, paleoecological, and socioeconomic datasets, spatial econometric models of population growth, and a novel coupled hydrodynamic-photo-biogeochemical model specifically designed for the marsh-estuarine continuum in the heavily urbanized Long Island Sound.
