Since 1967, Stroud™ Water Research Center has focused on one thing — fresh water. We seek to advance knowledge and stewardship of freshwater systems through global research, education, and watershed restoration.
Freshwater
Research
Our independence and nonadvocacy status ensure the integrity of our research into what makes healthy stream and river ecosystems.
Environmental
Education
We interpret our research to educate students, teachers, policymakers, and many others about how to ensure clean fresh water for generations to come.
Watershed
Restoration
Healthy streams begin on land. We help landowners improve water quality by implementing best management practices and planting streamside forests.
