WaterMarks Newsletter - Winter 2025
This issue features a New England WSC-led study that estimates PFAS occurrence in groundwater nationwide. Our work on nitrogen entering Long Island Sound is also highlighted, featuring a report on groundwater-transported nitrogen and an application displaying long-term data. Additionally, we share news about our East Hartford office ribbon cutting and our participation at AGU24.
