This project assessed the nutrient, sediment and carbon fluxes to the coastal zone in South Asia and their relationship to human activities. The key outcomes of the project included improving a network of researchers and institutes in the Asian region, compiling existing data, issuing of publications, and conducting a regional workshop. Key features of this project included a good capacity building component through visits of scientists to laboratories in other countries, and the introduction of computer modelling to scientists. Several research students engaged in the project received their MSc degrees based on the work carried out under the project.
