- 3From:Obesity, Fitness & Wellness WeekA new report from the inspector general of the U.S. EPA on the lack of sufficient monitoring of water supplies provides more reason for Americans to consider using "final barrier" technology in their homes, according to...
- 4From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 14, Issue 7) Peer-ReviewedMegacities are facing serious water pollution problems due to urbanization, rapid population growth and economic development. Water is an essential resource for human activities and socio-economic development and water...
- 5From:Journal of Environmental Health (Vol. 62, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedAlgae and Bacteria Influence Breakdown of Herbicides Some species of green algae that help break down soil-applied herbicides could help improve soil and water quality, according to scientists from the U.S....
- 6From:BioScience (Vol. 45, Issue 3) Peer-ReviewedWater quality in large rivers can be managed with the use of a two-stage approach. Pollutant watersheds are first identified with the use of coarse-resolution data. Smaller watersheds critical for pollution control...
- 7From:Journal of Environmental Health (Vol. 62, Issue 5) Peer-Reviewed* Groundwater in Ingham County, Michigan, is generally characterized as "hard," with the exception of naturally "soft" groundwater (less than 200 ppm of calcium carbonate) in one area of bedrock. * The naturally soft...
- 8From:Canadian Water Resources Journal (Vol. 36, Issue 3) Peer-ReviewedAn increased understanding of regional surface water quality and the key factors which differentiate regional from local differences is necessary for monitoring impacts such as mountain pine beetle infestation and...
- 9From:The Ohio Journal of Science (Vol. 103, Issue 1) Peer-Reviewed4:45 Section 404 of the Clean Water Act regulates the discharge of dredged and fill material into waters of the United States, including wetlands. The basic premise of the program is that no discharge of dredged or...
