Largier, John	Professor, Environmental Science & Policy, BML	UCD	707-875-1930	Coastal oceanography and ecology, field-based study of water motion and the associated transport of water-borne material. This includes oceanographic study of bays in upwelling regions, small "west coast" estuaries characterized by arid summers, bar-built mouths and pulsed winter inflow, and nearshore circulation (e.g., outflow from rivers, shoaling internal tides, and wind/wave-driven flows). Larval/ juvenile dispersal, coastal water quality (e.g., beach pollution), and primary productivity (including harmful algal blooms).
