Nutrient processing at the land-ocean interface: Assessing groundwater transformations through reactive transport modeling

Increase in population pressure at and near the coastline lead to increased anthropogenic input to the coastal ecosystem, including introduction of organic and nutrient rich material to the groundwater discharging into the coastal surface waters. The proposed work will investigate the role and potential for mitigation and removal of nutrients during their passage through the subsurface, precluding eutrophication of the coastal ocean. The project has close ties to the Joye Lab field campaigns.
