A survey of the source and fate of pollutants in the coastal ocean, focusing specifically on the physical processes that govern the transport of nutrients, sediment, hydrocarbons, and human pathogens in coastal ecosystems. Material includes readings from scientific papers, grey literature, and news media in order to develop intuition for how transport phenomena frame both pollution issues and solutions.

I'm okay with Nick, he's a good professor and the lectures are informative&highly associated with local facts. The TA seems to be very busy this quarter so we don't receive our FIRST grades on WEEK 8 -- which is hilarious. Have no idea of what the rubric looked like and what to pay attention to until most assignments were turned in. Not recommend.

Nick is awesome. He is very relaxed and approachable. He really teaches based off the energy in the class-if people aren't into it, he'll keep it short, if they are, he'll elaborate. No tests, just 5 reports done in Jupiter notebook based on lecture topics and field data from lab. Reports are prompted to be mock consulting-type work. Learned a ton!

Nick is so chill, but to go to lectures. I thought it was such an interesting class and i really enjoyed it but theres a lot of physics involved so be ready for equations. also go to office hours his lab is sick and theres dogs running around

Nick genuinely wants you to learn the class material. The math is very hard and the class exercises are too. However, he is a very lenient grader and his grading system is set up for you to succeed. you can fail the final and still pass the class. Show up to class, he knows who is putting in effort and knows who doesn't. He's also a such a cutie ;)
