Loretta Fernandez and her colleagues have been working on creating passive samplers that would allow them to locate old munitions by detecting degraded compounds in the water.

In recently published research, Gabriela Garcia and her collaborators have developed a framework for how to understand alternate bearing.

Jim Chen, a professor of civil and environmental engineering and marine and environmental sciences, expects a lot of strong hurricanes this year that will require preparation to mitigate impact.
