Comparison of water in two adjacent watersheds before and after
implementing a brush management strategy in one of the
watersheds helps us see what water resource characteristics are
sensitive to brush management and how. Changes in the way
communities address potential problems with stormwater runoff
may affect surface waters. This study combines geographic with
hydrologic analyses to better understand the effects of the
management strategies. Study of the effects of the practice of
cycling municipal nutrient-enriched wastewater from holding
ponds through forested wetlands. Studies were in the Cypiere
Perdue Swamp, Louisiana, and the Drummond Bog, Wisconsin.
Reviews how coal fires occur, how they can be detected by
airborne and remote surveys, and, most importantly, the impact
coal-fire emissions may have on the environment and human
health, especially mercury, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and
methane. The USGS reviews and prepares technical comments on
environmental impact statements and establishes pol
