Nutrient Trends in Streams and Rivers of the United States, 1993-2003
This technical report for scientists is a compilation of stream flow and nutrient load data on regional and national levels. Total nitrogen, nitrate, and phosphorus concentrations and loads were determined within streams from 1993-2003. The report examines nutrient loading over the ten year time period spatially, deducing affects of stream flow and nutrient source changes over time. Information provided by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). 2009.
Florida Red Tide: Current Status
This user-friendly website is for anyone interested in up-to-date red tide events and ongoing monitoring efforts. Past and current red-tide counts are available for all of Florida’s coastal regions.

The UNH Stormwater Center 2005 Report
The 2006 Report will also be available after January 2008. The Stormwater Center studies stormwater-related water quality and quantity issues. UNH designed, constructed, and runs a facility that provides the controlled testing of stormwater management designs and devices. One unique feature is the field facility for research to evaluate and verify the performance of stormwater management devices and technologies. Fifteen different management systems are currently undergoing side-by-side comparison testing under strictly controlled conditions. This on-campus evaluation facility enables the Center to offer technology demonstrations and workshops, and also specialized training opportunities.
The Economics of Low-Impact Development:
A Literature Review - November 2007

The Economics of Low-Impact Development: A Literature Review" is a nice overview which you can download at the ECONorthwest website. Includes analysis of studies on cost savings of reducing floodplain impacts (flooding).
Effects of Urbanization on Stream Ecosystems
Intended for scientists and policy-makers, this website outlines studies of the physical and biological effects of urbanization on aquatic stream ecosystems. These studies were performed across the United States, providing insight into stream protection and restoration needs for urban areas throughout the country. Website provided by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). June, 2010.
