Summary
M Harris is an Associate Professor at the College of Charleston with over a decade of applied research and teaching experience in coastal and marine stratigraphy, sedimentology, and paleogeography. He blends traditional geological mapping and geoarchaeology with modern geophysical tools—side-scan sonar, chirp subbottom profiling, and ground-penetrating radar—and advanced GIS workflows (ArcGIS, CARIS, QPS toolsets). His work extends into Internet of Things design and sensor deployment for marine and coastal habitat delineation, pairing field instrumentation with database and GIS implementation. Based in South Carolina, he brings practical expertise in both terrestrial and marine survey techniques and habitat mapping. Notably, he integrates instrumentation development and data management, making him as comfortable designing sensor systems as interpreting stratigraphic records.
