We have published more than 180 peer reviewed journal publications, many in Journals of the American Geophysical Union<\/a>. Our papers shed light\u00a0on the dynamics of coastal wetlands, tidal deltas, and salt marshes.<\/span> We integrate field observations, remote sensing, and numerical modeling to understand how physical and ecological processes shape coastal landscapes<\/span><\/p>\n

A complete list of my publications is available on Google Scholar<\/a> and ResearchGate<\/a>.<\/p>\n
