Detailed Description

Daniel Ciarletta, PhD is a Mendenhall Postdoctoral Fellow (Research Geologist) at the USGS St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center. "I investigate the evolution of barrier island morphology to learn about how changes in sediment availability, sea-level rise, and other environmental factors impact coastal resiliency and vulnerability. To accomplish this, I combine field approaches with numerical modeling to quantify geomorphological change through time."
