Brant Touchette, an associate professor of biology and environmental studies, was featured in a recent publication of Coastwatch. The article, "Research Grows Future Scientists," shows Touchette and his students in their study of the Black Needlerush, a species found in coastal estuaries and marshes.
A recipient of a North Carolina Sea Grant, which funded his research, Touchette and his students discuss not only their findings, but the importance of their research to coastal management.
