Stroud Water Research Center
“We are really leaning on Stroud to provide the aquatic ecology piece, to help us put data into context and advance our understanding of watershed health.”
Building trust in the scientific process starts with communicating our research to non-scientists. To that end, our scientists share snapshots of three long-term experiments.
Our summer internship program, now in its 49th year, has ushered through hundreds of interns seeking meaningful learning experiences.
To help understand the extent of this problem in Pennsylvania, scientists are looking at the occurrence and migration of biosolid-derived PFASs into soil and water on agricultural fields.

Stream restorations rarely get monitored rigorously enough to determine if the “patient” has fully recovered.
We’re studying how White Clay Creek can recover from deforestation and agricultural expansion and to what extent restoration practices can acclerate that recovery.
To truly make a difference requires, not only understanding freshwater systems, but working with all kinds of communities to protect them.
