Coastal Zone Restoration
Bio
Research emphasizes the application of agronomic principles to environmental restoration and conservation. Interests include propagation and mineral nutrition of coastal sand dune, salt marsh and fresh water wetland vegetation for erosion control, habitat creation, restoration, and mitigation; constructed wetlands for wastewater treatment; biofilters for nonpoint source drainage; and revegetation of mined land.
