	Due to the close ties among physical, biological and chemical processes in nearshore and estuarine systems, scientific research requires inter-disciplinary approaches. Consequently, the coastal geology program interacts with a variety of other programs at Jackson Estuarine Laboratory and throughout the University. In addition, the Coastal Geology Program is heavily involved with education and includes graduate and undergraduate students in most projects. Most recent personnel interacting with Coastal Geology program include the following.

• Environmental monitoring

Debra Brewitt Laboratory and Field Technician

• Computing and data management
• Shipboard operations

Jeffrey Rogers Ph.D. Student in NRESS
