PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY
Dr. Andy Baldwin is Professor in the Department of Environmental Science and Technology. His research and teaching focus on plant and ecosystem ecology of natural and restored wetlands. He is interested in both coastal and inland wetlands, with the goal of understanding links between plant regeneration, carbon and nitrogen cycling, and global change factors (specifically sea-level rise, temperature, eutrophication, and invasive species). He teaches classes on wetland ecology, wetland restoration, and wetland plant identification and is past President of the Society of Wetland Scientists.
