Stroud Water Research Center
From New Jersey to Costa Rica to North Carolina and back home at the Stroud Center, our education staff was busy this fall!
Stroud Water Research Center biologists completed a project to better understand the threat of contaminants from agriculture entering the fish and drinking water supplies around the Río Sierpe and Río…
Those who know Morales best describe him with words that are often identical: Intelligent. Conscientious. Responsible. Curious. Honest. Funny.
“Our work at Maritza is critical to our mission. It has enabled us to understand global water and climate issues in ways we could not have done without it.”
Denis Newbold, Ph.D., holds strong political beliefs and an absolute commitment to scientific rigor, not an easy place to be when science is under fire.
Stroud Center scientists sampled the Río Sierpe and Grande de Terraba watersheds to identify contaminants as well as contaminated species that threaten humans who consume them.
Scientists are using new knowledge to provide an update of the River Continuum Concept and develop a broad model of carbon cycling.
Pesticides and other contaminants from agriculture pose an unknown threat to the Rio Sierpe ecosystem and to humans who eat contaminated fish and shellfish.
Recording data patterns will provide a climatic template that will help us to create a scalable model of what we might expect as our climate changes.
Stroud Water Research Center scientists conducted a planning expedition to the Rio Sierpe in Costa Rica to assess water and habitat quality, determine the feasibility of establishing a multi-year monitoring…
