Is this cemetery haunted? Probably not, but there could be tiny things moving beyond the grave. The USGS sampled groundwater downhill of Mt. Hope Cemetery in Lansing, Michigan, to find out if materials associated with decomposition and burial processes could affect groundwater quality near a cemetery.

(She/her)Angela Brennan is the Data Management Coordinator with the Office of Quality Assurance in the USGS Water Resources Mission Area.
Angela assists in the coordination, development, and maintenance of data management guidance, best practices, and tools for ensuring the quality of WMA scientific data throughout the data lifecycle and helps to define clear expectations for data management requirements. Angela also collaborates with various entities within the Water Resources Mission Area Divisions and Programs, as well as Water Science Centers, USGS Regions, USGS Office of Science Quality and Integrity, USGS Office of the Associate Chief Information Officer, and the Science Data Management Branch of the Core Science Systems to develop clear expectations for data management requirements, communicate data management needs, and to maintain an online library of tools, training, and resources.
Prior to working with the Water Resources Mission Area Office of Quality Assurance, Angela worked as a Hydrologist and Water Quality Specialist with the Upper Midwest Water Science Center located in Lansing and Grayling, Michigan. Her research with the USGS focused on evaluating nutrients and emerging contaminants in rivers, lakes and groundwater throughout the Great Lakes region.

Determination of Algal Toxin Concentrations in Surface Waters at National Parks
The U.S. Geological Survey, in partnership with the National Park Service began a project in 2012 exploring levels of the algal toxins in surface drinking water and recreational waters in 3 National Park Service Parks: Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, Isle Royale National Park, and Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore.
Silver Lake Nutrient Study
Recently, elevated chlorophyll-a concentrations were found related to persistent algal blooms on Silver Lake in Oceana County, MI. Elevated chlorophyll-a concentrations, high phosphorus concentrations during summer months, as well as a decrease in water clarity indicated potential accelerated eutrophication processes during the last two years, and underscore a need to characterize water and...
