Literature Review: Building Climate Resilience in Stream Restoration Practices

 800 532 Stroud Water Research Center

This review of published peer-reviewed research identifies river restoration techniques that effectively mitigate climate change impacts. Funded by: Chesapeake Bay Trust Principal Investigators: 2023: Melinda D. Daniels and Marc Peipoch…

Evaluating the Effects of Invasive Mud Snails on the Delaware River Basin

 800 532 Stroud Water Research Center

Scientists are evaluating the negative effects of an invasive species, the New Zealand mud snail, on trout and shad populations in the Delaware River basin by combining laboratory tests and…

Anthropogenic Legacies: How Riparian Soils Respond to Human Disturbance

 800 532 Stroud Water Research Center

This study investigates the physical, biogeochemical, and microbial characteristics of novel anthropogenic soils that have accumulated in the valley bottoms of the mid-Atlantic U.S. due to the coupled effects of…

Dynamics of Phytoplankton Growth and Transport in River Networks From Local to Continental Scales

 800 532 Stroud Water Research Center

Researchers examine how fluctuations in river algae levels during river floods can help identify the impact of nitrogen and phosphorus on the Delaware River and other rivers in the United…

Evaluating and Updating Data Collection Protocols in National Parks of the National Capital Region

 800 532 Stroud Water Research Center

The National Park Service has monitored stream water quality and quantity for more than 15 years in shallow streams located in 10 parks of the National Capital Region Network. This…

Long-Term Research in Environmental Biology: River Ecosystem Responses to Floodplain Restoration

 800 532 Stroud Water Research Center

After 25 years of litigation, a massive ecological restoration is underway in the Upper Clark Fork River in Montana. Metal-laden floodplain soils are being removed, floodplains are being reconnected with…

Monitoring Fish Populations and Stream Habitat Quality for the National Park Service

 800 532 Stroud Water Research Center

This project monitors biological conditions, water quality, habitat integrity, and fish at 37 sites in 10 national parks in the National Capital Region Network around Washington, D.C. The National Park…

Monitoring Harmful Algal Blooms in Two Reservoirs Serving the City of Wilmington, Del.

 800 532 Stroud Water Research Center

Researchers deploy and maintain two sampling buoys to gather real-time data on algae populations in two Wilmington, Del., reservoirs. Data will be used to predict and prevent the development of…

Recovery of Nutrient Processes and Microbial Communities in Relict Hydric Soils Following Restoration

 800 532 Stroud Water Research Center

This research explores how microbes and biogeochemical processes in buried relict soils evolve after restoration and how these organisms and processes can be harnessed to remove nitrogen before it pollutes…

Saturated, Suffocated, and Salty: Hotspots of Dissimilatory Nitrate Reduction in Anoxic Riparian Soils

 800 532 Stroud Water Research Center

Riparian soils above low-head dams (milldams) usually contain large amounts of bioavailable nitrogen that could impair the adjacent streams if it becomes mobilized. This project investigates the origin of the…
