It provides an intellectual platform that promotes the philosophy of a sustainable world. Students in the program examine a broad spectrum of environmental problems at a wide range of scales, from local through global. Students have conducted research in areas including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div>reconstructions of ice-sheets and their impact on sea level<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>remediation of inorganic and organic contaminants in coastal waterways<\/li>\n<li>the economics of biofuels and other renewable energy sources<\/li>\n<li>mapping shrubs in Arctic tundra using satellite remote sensing<\/li>\n<li>human impacts on wetlands and aquatic ecosystems such as turtle harvesting<\/li>\n<li>establishing safe migratory routes for species affected by habitat fragmentation<\/li>\n<li>restoring seagrass habitats<\/li>\n<li>understanding and managing blooms of jellyfish<\/li>\n<li>modeling the geomorphology of the coastline in response to rising sea levels and increasing storm frequency<\/li>\n<li>numerical modeling of the spatial diffusion of diseases<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>See the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/environmental-management-phd\/people\/\">People<\/a> section to see the research areas that current students are pursuing.

The campus is situated on a beautiful, 252-acre suburban campus<a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/KWEUY4KKgZz\"> just 12 miles from New York City<\/a>. The University also hosts a number of highly dynamic institutes and centers with interests related to the environment, including the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/clean-energy-sustainability-analytics\/\">Clean Energy and Sustainability Analytics Center (CESAC)<\/a>, the <a href=\"\/water-science\/\">New Jersey Center for Water Science and Technology<\/a>, the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/pseg-sustainability-institute\/\">PSEG Institute for Sustainability Science (ISS)<\/a>, among others. Most PhD students are stationed in the new Center for Environmental and Life Sciences building; see the photographs below.<\/p>\n<p>The campus environment here at 精品成人福利在线 University is very pleasant, with our <strong>Center for Environmental and Life Sciences (CELS)<\/strong> building overlooking Manhattan (New York City); and there are also two rail stations adjacent to campus allowing easy
