Student Research Numerous opportunities exist for graduate and undergraduate students to become involved in Coastal Geology research at Jackson Estuarine Laboratory (JEL). First, there are a number of graduate students who do their degrees under the guidance of JEL faculty. These students usually come from various departments of the UNH campus. Most students interested in coastal geology do their B.A., B.S. or M.S. degrees through the Department of Earth Sciences . Doctorate students matriculate through the Natural Resources and Earth System Science Ph.D. Program (NRESS) at UNH. Secondly, undergraduate and graduate students can do directed independent studies at JEL. Finally, many of the field and laboratory positions in coastal geology are filled by students. For more information visit the Student Opportunities at JEL page. |

| Course Work The majority of students course work is done on the UNH campus in Durham located about five miles away. In addition, Dr Larry Ward periodically offers a course in Nearshore Processes (ESCI 796/896). This course is designed for upper level undergraduates and new graduate students with an interest in the physical and sedimentological processes in estuarine, coastal, and inner shelf environments. Graduate Students Current Jeffrey Rogers. Ph.D. in NRESS. Remote sensing and modeling of salt marsh morphology and vegetation. Former Edward Merchant (M.S. in Earth Sciences, UNH, Spring 2003).
