Dr. Taneisha Edwards specializes in coastal zone geology, geological mapping and sedimentary geochemistry with an interest to make recommendations and influence coastal zone management in the Caribbean and the Latin American region. Her work combines the methods of coastal stratigraphy, coastal sedimentology, microfossil analysis, geochemistry, and substrate analysis to evaluate the health of the coastal systems. Her aim is to decode the historical processes and predict the future processes under different scenarios either naturally occurring processes or implemented by human activities (storms, tsunamis, sedimentation, mass movement, tectonics and sea level rise).
