Elizabeth (Liz) Nystrom is a Hydrologist with the New York Water Science Center.
Liz began her career with the USGS in 1999 as a student in the Illinois District working with acoustic Doppler current profilers. Her research interests are broad and are currently focused on research to operations, and include using cameras and imagery for hydrologic measurements, harmful algal blooms, hydraulic modeling, inundation mapping, bathymetry, and hydroacoustics.
Education:
2001 - M.S., Civil and Environmental Engineering, Environmental Hydrology and Hydraulic Engineering, University of Illinois
1999 - B.S., Civil and Environmental Engineering, Worcester Polytechnic Institute

Groundwater quality in the Lower Hudson River Basin, New York, 2008 Groundwater quality in the Lower Hudson River Basin, New York, 2008
Water samples were collected from 32 production and domestic wells in the study area from August through November 2008 to characterize the groundwater quality. The study area, which covers 5,607 square miles, encompasses the part of the Lower Hudson River Basin that lies within New York plus the parts of the Housatonic, Hackensack, Bronx, and Saugatuck River Basins that are in New York...

Ground-Water Quality in the Upper Hudson River Basin, New York, 2007 Ground-Water Quality in the Upper Hudson River Basin, New York, 2007
Water samples were collected from 25 production and domestic wells in the Upper Hudson River Basin (north of the Federal Dam at Troy, N.Y.) from August through November 2007 to characterize the ground-water quality. The Upper Hudson River Basin covers 4,600 square miles in upstate New York, Vermont, and Massachusetts; the study area encompasses the 4,000 square miles that lie within New...

Ground-Water Quality in the Mohawk River Basin, New York, 2006 Ground-Water Quality in the Mohawk River Basin, New York, 2006
Water samples were collected from 27 wells from August through November 2006 to characterize ground-water quality in the Mohawk River Basin. The Mohawk River Basin covers 3,500 square miles in central New York; most of the basin is underlain by sedimentary bedrock, including shale, sandstone, and carbonates. Sand and gravel form the most productive aquifers in the basin. Samples were...

Suspended sediment transport in the freshwater reach of the Hudson river estuary in eastern New York Suspended sediment transport in the freshwater reach of the Hudson river estuary in eastern New York
Deposition of Hudson River sediment into New York Harbor interferes with navigation lanes and requires continuous dredging. Sediment dynamics at the Hudson estuary turbidity maximum (ETM) have received considerable study, but delivery of sediment to the ETM through the freshwater reach of the estuary has received relatively little attention and few direct measurements. An acoustic...

Ground-Water Quality in the Delaware River Basin, New York, 2001 and 2005-2006 Ground-Water Quality in the Delaware River Basin, New York, 2001 and 2005-2006
The Federal Clean Water Act Amendments of 1977 require that States monitor and report on the quality of ground water and surface water. To satisfy part of these requirements, the U.S. Geological Survey and New York State Department of Environmental Conservation have developed a program in which ground-water quality is assessed in 2 to 3 of New York State's 14 major basins each year. To
