Estuaries are vital to the ecological and economic integrity of coastal environments and communities along southeastern U.S. coastlines. Presently, estuaries are exposed to many negative stressors resulting in degrading habitat quality and quantity which has direct consequences for a number of ecosystem services provided by estuarine ecosystems. Broadly, my research focuses on generating a better understanding of the ecology of estuaries and nearshore marine environments to improve the management and conservation of critical marine resources.
