Research
My work centers on the collection, management, and reporting of meteorological and water quality data using standardized protocols and a range of instruments, supporting long-term ecological research and monitoring within the North Inlet–Winyah Bay estuarine system. I primarily focus on nutrient analysis within this system, helping to assess water quality and ecosystem health. These efforts are part of the broader NERR System-Wide Monitoring Program, which enables the identification of trends and patterns in estuarine ecosystems in response to natural and human-driven changes.
