Forever chemicals threaten drinking water and human health. Learn how scientists are investigating PFAS contamination in farming.
All-star community science volunteers visit Goddard Space Flight Center and learn what NASA satellite data reveals about threats to streams.
Scientists, educators, and watershed restoration professionals are working together to create long-lasting and positive impacts on waterways.
This project supports water quality monitoring and development of a water quality model to guide an alternative restoration plan for the Octoraro Creek Watershed. The data, model, and plan will…
Scientists monitored fecal indicator bacteria in White Clay Creek during summer and identified potential bacterial contamination by molecular microbial source tracking with the goal of targeting best management practices and…
Sediment flowing from rivers to estuaries is a double-edged sword: too much sediment can harm oyster beds but not enough sediment can starve tidal marshes. Measuring whether a river is…
Scientists monitored fecal indicator bacteria on a monthly basis at the east and west branches of the Red Clay Creek watershed.Funded by: Starrett FoundationPrincipal Investigators2021–2022: Jinjun Kan, Jacob Price, and…
Little is known regarding soil microbes and nutrition levels in vegetables under different farming practices. We are connecting soil microbial community structure, extracellular enzyme activity, and nutrient density in green/black…
This project investigates the origin of the nitrogen stored in the riparian soils above milldams, the dominant processes controlling its transformation, and its risk of being released into the stream.…
This project quantifies the positive impacts of restoration projects on water quality and soil health associated with the Delaware River Watershed Initiative.(Project details may change over the lifespan of a…
