Stroud Water Research Center
In an effort to restore chestnut trees to watersheds, blight-resistant varieties of American Chestnut have been developed over the last several years. This study uses the growth and survivorship of…
Stroud Center scientists have authored or co-authored more than two dozen scientific papers this year, exhibiting the range of our science from Yellowstone Lake to Costa Rica and from earthworm…
Working in aquatic science is a dream come true for Matthew Wilson, the Entomology Group’s new staff scientist.
Stroud Water Research Center rolled out the red carpet for water systems experts from 23 countries who gathered to learn how to best protect their home countries’ water resources.
Funded by: US Department of Justice Principal Investigators: David B. Arscott and William H. Eldridge Collaborator: John K. Jackson (2014) Project Years: 2013, 2014
Stroud Center scientists participated with several collaborators in the development of restoration and protection implementation plans for targeted watersheds in the Brandywine-Christina and Middle Schuylkill clusters in the Delaware River…
The goal of this project is to collect and interpret entomological data from 35 stream sites. These sites represent an initial baseline as part of ANSDU’s comprehensive monitoring and technical…
The production of natural gas from the Marcellus shale in Pennsylvania results in water that travels up through the well bore. This water generally has high concentrations of various salts…
Many water quality standards for pollutants in streams are based on laboratory toxicity tests that rely on macroinvertebrate species that are easy to handle in the laboratory. Unfortunately, these standard…
This pilot study was designed to test how the use of a new technology called DNA barcoding can improve water quality assessment in California streams by enabling researchers to identify…
