... His current research focuses on the effects of resuspension on containment availability for dredged material, benthic studies associated with containment, prediction of tidal circulation and hydrodynamics, and criteria for the selection of placement sites for dredged material. He has authored or coauthored numerous papers on sediment transport and deposition, sediment mass balance, and effects of storm and tidal energy.
From page 80...
... His areas of expertise include marine benthos, marsh ecology, and salt marsh benthos. Recent research projects have involved a deep-sea assessment of dredged material, a benthic analysis of the Eastern Shore, and a long-term benthic monitoring study conducted on behalf of the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality.

... Her research interests include coastal marsh response to sea-level rise, the contributions of fine sediments and organic material to marsh soil development, and how these are affected by human alterations to marsh hydrology. She has worked on coastal issues in northwest Europe, southern Chile and the Atlantic, and the Pacific and Gulf coasts of the United States; she has published her results in numerous papers and reports.
