Preparing for next-generation models: insight into subarctic mixing from autonomous underwater gliders
Hindcasting and Forecasting Trajectories of Marsh Landscapes I will present recent improvements in a model (CoastMorpho2D) that simulates marsh morphodynamics. First, I will show how this model can reconstruct (hindcast) marsh trajectories over the last 5000 years. This model … Read more
Effects of Nutrients and Light on Phytoplankton Growth in Albemarle Sound, North Carolina Oligohaline zones of estuaries are often subject to harmful algal blooms. Albemarle Sound and its tributaries in northeastern North Carolina comprise the largest oligohaline lagoon in … Read more
Wind Effects on Estuarine Circulation and Salinity Distribution Most research on estuarine dynamics to date has focused on tides as the main driver of vertical mixing. There has been less work on the role of wind, despite early predictions of … Read more
