معرفی
William Strosnider is an Associate Professor at the Belle W. Baruch Institute for Marine and Coastal Sciences within the School of the Earth, Ocean and the Environment at the University of South Carolina. He holds a Ph.D. in Environmental Engineering (University of Oklahoma), M.S. in Environmental Studies (College of Charleston), and B.S. in Mechanical Engineering (University of Dayton).
His research focuses on ecological engineering applications, particularly in coastal areas, addressing water quality challenges through sustainable solutions like floating treatment wetlands, bioreactors, and living shorelines. Specific interests include mine water remediation, pollutant dynamics, and appropriate technologies for developing regions. He has contributed extensively to understanding biogeochemical processes in wetlands and their role in ecosystem restoration.
His publications highlight innovative approaches to water treatment, including co-treatment of mine drainage and municipal wastewater, and the design of cost-effective systems like BOLTS. Recent work emphasizes plant suitability for brackish water applications and phosphorus cycling in constructed wetlands.
Dr. Strosnider has advised numerous graduate and undergraduate students on projects ranging from karst hydrology to agricultural runoff management. His work bridges applied research and real-world environmental challenges, with a focus on global sustainability and community-driven solutions.
