Bibliography of water-quality studies in Gateway National Recreation Area, New York and New Jersey

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) provided technical assistance to the National Park Service (NPS) as part of the USGS-NPS Water-Quality Partnership, by gathering references related to water-quality research conducted in the three units of Gateway National Recreation Area (GATE): Jamaica Bay and Staten Island in New York, and Sandy Hook in New Jersey. As part of this effort, a literature search was performed to compile previous water-quality research conducted within the boundaries of GATE. The resulting bibliography is meant to assist GATE resource managers in understanding the extent of available data and developing plans to close data gaps.
