Marine and Coastal Science ” Coastal Environmental Processes or Marine Environmental Chemistry

About

Do you want to explore science in an applied, hands-on way? Marine scientists apply scientific skills in the natural and physical sciences to protect ocean and coastal environments and solve modern, global problems. Our oceans account for more than 96 percent of the worlds water, and few of the worlds coastlines are beyond the influence of human pressures. The coastal environmental processes emphasis concentrates on environments and systems in the coastal zone, and the strong physical-biological connection that exists here; the marine environmental chemistry emphasis spotlights major themes in marine chemistry, geochemistry, the carbon cycle and contaminant fate and transport.
