Coastal Studies Laboratory 

The Coastal Studies Lab at FAU supports field and laboratory research focusing on coastal geology, geomorphology, and sedimentology.

A variety of undergraduate and graduate research projects are supported by the lab, including studies on morphologic evolution associated with storm-impacts and beach nourishment, critical ecological functions of healthy beaches (i.e., sea turtle nesting habitat), sediment transport, and coastal resiliency.
