Tracking status and trends in seven key indicators of stream health in the Chesapeake Bay watershed
Quantifying connectivity and its effects on sediment budgeting for an agricultural basin, Chesapeake Bay Watershed, United States
Identifying key stressors driving biological impairment in freshwater streams in the Chesapeake Bay watershed, USA
Going beyond low flows: Streamflow drought deficit and duration illuminate distinct spatiotemporal drought patterns and trends in the U.S. during the last century
Microbial community response to a bioaugmentation test to degrade trichloroethylene in a fractured rock aquifer, Trenton, N.J
A water quality barometer for Chesapeake Bay: Assessing spatial and temporal patterns using long-term monitoring data
Ephemeral stream network extraction from lidar-derived elevation and topographic attributes in urban and forested landscapes
Lessons learned from 20 y of monitoring suburban development with distributed stormwater management in Clarksburg, Maryland, USA
Sediment sources and sealed-pavement area drive polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon and metal occurrence in urban streams
A borehole test for chlorinated solvent diffusion and degradation rates in sedimentary rock
We present a new field measurement and numerical interpretation method (combined termed ‘test’) to parameterize the diffusion of trichloroethene (TCE) and its biodegradation products (DPs) from the matrix of sedimentary rock. The method uses a dual-packer system to interrogate a low-permeability section of the rock matrix adjacent to a previously contaminated borehole and uses the borehole monitor
