School of Marine Science: 2007/2008 CCRM Students
 |
Mary Huang - Mary is a Ph.D. candidate at the College of William and Mary/Virginia Institute of Marine Science investigating the role of tidal wetlands as a source of fecal coliform by analyzing the model predicted errors between observed data and water quality model predictions. The results of this work may have an impact on the development of shellfish total maximum daily loads (TMDLs) in Virginia. |

M. Karinna Nunez - Karinna is a MS candidate for the College of William and Mary/Virginia Institute of Marine Science. She is developing a Multi-level Erosion Risk Assessment Model to evaluate the vulnerability of Maryland shoreline due to erosion. She is utilizing different levels of forecasting to assess potential shoreline change.
While pursing an advanced degree, Karinna also works for CCRM as a GIS Programmer. Her research interests include GIS technology and remote sensing, sustainable development management in coastal areas, and water quality issues.

David O'Brien - David is a Ph.D. candidate for the College of William and Mary/Virginia Institute of Marine Science.
While pursuing an advanced degree, David also works for CCRM as the Program Manager for the wetlands advisory group. His interests include the development of ecological indicators of aquatic health for tidal and nontidal wetland ecosystems, the study of tidal and nontidal wetland plant communities and shifts in plant assemblages resulting from changes in salinity, elevation, and the frequency and duration of flooding associated with climate change. |
