Coastal and Marine Resources Management
Tetra Tech has provided coastal and offshore services to help our clients and the communities they serve improve and protect coastal and marine resources for 50 years.
Coastal communities require a combination of soft and hard engineered solutions as they adapt to the effects of climate change. Our scientists and engineers serve the entire project life cycle, from initial assessments and data collection efforts to the design and construction of critical infrastructure and restoration of coastal habitat.
Our expertise extends from the coastal zone to the deep ocean, where our researchers and engineers conduct biological field sampling, navigational assessments, geophysical surveys, and modeling analyses to safely manage operations at ports and offshore. Tetra Tech’s dedicated survey vessels and sampling equipment support our marine services.
