Biogeochemical Hotspots: Role of Small Water Bodies in Landscape Nutrient Processing
(University of Waterloo, 2017-05-09)Increased loading of nitrogen and phosphorus from agricultural and urban intensification has led to severe degradation of inland and coastal waters. Lakes, reservoirs, wetlands, and streams retain and transform these ... -
Biogeochemistry Across Spatiotemporal Scales: The Role of Reactive Interfaces in Modulating Landscape Scale Contaminant Fluxes
(University of Waterloo, 2022-09-09)The intensification of agricultural and urban activities has been accompanied by increased fluxes of nutrients to inland and coastal waters, leading to concerns of eutrophication and drinking water contamination. Certain ... -
Checkered Landscapes: Quantifying Dominant Control on Nitrogen Legacies and Time Lags along the River Continuum
(University of Waterloo, 2020-08-20)In agricultural watersheds across the world, decades of commercial fertilizer application and intensive livestock production have led to elevated stream nutrient levels and problems of eutrophication in both inland and ... -
A Random Forest in the Great Lakes: Exploring Nutrient Water Quality in the Laurentian Great Lakes Watersheds
(University of Waterloo, 2020-09-22)A data driven approach was used in this study to investigate the drivers of nutrient water quality across the Laurentian Great Lakes drainage basin. Monitored time series of nutrient water quality and discharge were modelled ...
