Isolating The Driver Of A Regional Increase In Stream And Lake DOC Concentrations Via Archived Samples And Long-Term Experiments.

SanClements , Michael 1 1 The National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) Over the last several decades dissolved organic carbon concentrations (DOC) in surface waters have increased throughout much of the northern hemisphere. Several hypotheses have been proposed regarding the drivers of this phenomenon including decreased sulfur (S) deposition working via...

Do Oil And Water Mix? Effects Of Oil And Gas Development On Water Quality In Colorado’s Denver-Julesburg Basin

Ryan , Joseph 1 1 Civil, Environmental, and Architectural Engineering; University of Colorado, Boulder Over the past decade, hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling accelerated oil and gas development in Colorado. Much of the development occurred closer to populated areas than in the past and raised concerns about public health and...
