Douglas L. Moyer
Doug Moyer is the Associate Director for Studies and a Supervisory Hydrologist with the U.S. Geological Survey's Virginia and West Virginia Water Science Center in Richmond, VA.
Doug has been involved with a wide variety of USGS water-resources investigations throughout the Chesapeake Bay region since 1998. A primary focus of his work has been on monitoring and modeling the fate and transport of nutrients and suspended sediment across multiple watershed scales throughout Virginia and the Chesapeake Bay watershed.

Changes in streamflow and water quality in selected nontidal basins in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed, 1985-2004 Changes in streamflow and water quality in selected nontidal basins in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed, 1985-2004
As part of an annual evaluation of water-quality conditions by the Chesapeake Bay Program, water-quality and streamflow data from 32 sites in nontidal parts of the Chesapeake Bay watershed were analyzed to document annual nutrient and sediment trends for 1985 through 2004. This study also formalized different trend tests and methodologies used in assessing the effectiveness of man...

Biogeochemical and metabolic responses to the flood pulse in a semiarid floodplain Biogeochemical and metabolic responses to the flood pulse in a semiarid floodplain
Flood pulse inundation of riparian forests alters rates of nutrient retention and organic matter processing in the aquatic ecosystems formed in the forest interior. Along the Middle Rio Grande (New Mexico, USA), impoundment and levee construction have created riparian forests that differ in their inter-flood intervals (IFIs) because some floodplains are still regularly inundated by the...

Changes in streamflow and water quality in selected nontidal sites in the Chesapeake Bay Basin, 1985-2003 Changes in streamflow and water quality in selected nontidal sites in the Chesapeake Bay Basin, 1985-2003
Water-quality and streamflow data from 33 sites in nontidal portions of the Chesapeake Bay Basin were analyzed to document annual nutrient and sediment loads and trends for 1985 through 2003 as part of an annual evaluation of water-quality conditions by the Chesapeake Bay Program. As part of this study, different trend tests and methodologies were evaluated for future use in assessment...

Enhancing fecal coliform total maximum daily load models through bacterial source tracking Enhancing fecal coliform total maximum daily load models through bacterial source tracking
Surface water impairment by fecal coliform bacteria is a water quality issue of national scope and importance. In Virginia, more than 400 stream and river segments are on the Commonwealth's 2002 303(d) list because of fecal coliform impairment. Total maximum daily loads (TMDLs) will be developed for most of these listed streams and rivers. Information regarding the major fecal coliform...

Patterns and sources of fecal coliform bacteria in three streams in Virginia, 1999-2000 Patterns and sources of fecal coliform bacteria in three streams in Virginia, 1999-2000
Surface-water impairment by fecal coliform bacteria is a water-quality issue of national scope and importance. In Virginia, more than 175 stream segments are on the Commonwealth's 1998 303(d) list of impaired waters because of elevated concentrations of fecal coliform bacteria. These fecal coliform-impaired stream segments require the development of total maximum daily load (TMDL) and...

Impairment of surface waters by fecal coliform bacteria is a water-quality issue of national scope and importance. Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act requires that each State identify surface waters that do not meet applicable water-quality standards. In Virginia, more than 175 stream segments are on the 1998 Section 303(d) list of impaired waters because of violations of the water...
