UMD’s PhD in Environmental Science and Technology trains researchers to address critical environmental issues through soil science, hydrology, microbial ecology, and ecosystem restoration. Students conduct field-based and laboratory investigations that inform sustainable land, water, and air management policies.
Modeling nitrogen transport in agricultural runoff across watersheds
Long-term monitoring of carbon fluxes in reforested ecosystems
Evaluation of microbial activity in constructed wetlands for nutrient removal
Assessment of soil amendments for remediation of heavy metal contamination
Design of sensor networks for real-time monitoring of groundwater quality
Study of drought resilience in restored riparian buffer zones
Carbon sequestration potential of urban green infrastructure
Ecosystem service valuation of coastal marshes under sea level rise
Microbial community dynamics in compost systems for waste management
Phosphorus cycling analysis in intensive livestock production systems
Evaluation of green stormwater infrastructure for urban heat mitigation
Remote sensing analysis of vegetation stress under climate extremes
Impact of reforestation on watershed hydrology and sediment transport
Spatial modeling of floodplain connectivity and habitat restoration
Bioremediation of petroleum-contaminated sites using native fungi
Study of greenhouse gas fluxes in biochar-amended soils
Predictive modeling of invasive species spread in aquatic ecosystems
Ecotoxicological study of pesticide mixtures in stream ecosystems
GIS-based mapping of erosion-prone agricultural landscapes
Design of a field-scale wetland for low-impact development demonstration
