Are coastal plain SCMs BMPs for nutrient control?

P1000888

Piehler lab graduate student Adam Gold and Lab Manager Suzanne Thompson have undertaken an ambitious field campaign to assess the effectiveness of stormwater control measures (SCM) at removing nitrogen. They have designed and initiated this project in close collaboration with former Master Sergeant Mike Taylor – now a stormwater specialist at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune. Information generated by this work will improve our understanding of the efficacy of coastal SCMs and will inform stormwater management. Photo credit to Susan Cohen!
