Focuses on sediment dynamics along the land-sea continuum, from intertidal to nearshore regions. The first part of the course develops relevant sediment-transport theories and equations used in the second part to examine coastal landscapes and features, including sediment/vegetation interactions. Integration of field observations and modeling approaches will be emphasized throughout the course, as will human impacts and responses to climate change.
Offered synchronously to all MEES partner institutions via video. Please contact the instructor(s) for access and logistical information as needed.
