Water quality in the Pennsylvania streams and rivers

We're interested in investigating the flow and fluxes of nutrients and metals in Philadelphia waterways to see impacts of land use and human activity on aquatic ecosystems. We use advanced analytical instrumentation and methodologies to measure elements and compounds of environmental interest, and have the capacity for incubation experiments to mimic environmental conditions.
