Summary
Jorge Lorenzo-Trueba is an Associate Professor and coastal scientist with nine years of post-PhD academic experience studying how physical and biological processes—and their interactions with human activities—shape coastal dynamics across environments from deltas and marshes to reef islands and mangroves. He combines novel conceptual and numerical morphodynamic models with field and experimental work to quantify effects of sea-level rise, sediment supply, overwash, and land-use change on coastal evolution. His prior appointments include research roles at Woods Hole and Rice and a decade-long professorship at Montclair State, reflecting a track record of translating mechanistic insights into predictive tools. Jorge’s work often bridges disciplines, revealing how engineering interventions produce both intended and unintentional landscape responses, and he brings expertise in applied hydrodynamic modeling from early career floodplain projects to current academic leadership in Gainesville.
