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…
Stroud Water Research Center has expanded on 20 years of research on tropical streams near the Maritza Biological Station in northwest Costa Rica, which provides the framework of this study,…
Salt helps keep winter roads safe. But when snow melts, the salt runs off pavement and can end up in waterways.
Fresh groundwater, where some drinking water comes from, recharges streams. Scientists are concerned about early signs that groundwater sources are getting saltier.
