Sean is a postdoctoral research fellow broadly interested in understanding how global change, including climate change, invasive species, and nutrient pollution, translates to local changes within coastal wetland ecosystems and communities. He earned his PhD at University of Florida studying disturbance and resilience dynamics of salt marsh ecosystems of the southeastern United States. He is currently working on a NASA-funded project to forecast impacts of regional land use, socioeconomic and environmental change to Great Lakes watersheds and coastal wetland communities. Specifically, he is working with the Mondrian development team and collaborators from Michigan State University and Michigan Technical Research Institute to enhance nutrient cycling in Mondrian, a process-based simulation model, and incorporate it into a larger Great Lakes watershed hydrology model
