Member Since: August 14th, 2006

Stephen V. Smith has a PhD degree in Oceanography from the University of Hawaii, an MS degree (Geology) from Northwestern University, and a BA degree (Geology) from the University of Texas. He is an Emeritus Professor of Oceanography at the University of Hawaii. Dr Smith specializes in biogeochemical budgets (carbon, nutrients, water, sediments), at local, regional, and global scales. Since about 2000, his main areas of interest have included river nutrient loading to the ocean, the role of small, artificial water bodies in the hydrology and sediment dynamics of the U.S., the role of erosion and terrestrial sediment deposition in the global carbon budget, and linked organic carbon and calcium carbonate budgets in the global ocean.
