Experts call Muskegon Lake a “model Great Lakes estuary.” Two new studies detail its patterns of hypoxia and the ecological effects with unprecedented clarity.

Using synthetic biology, researchers have identified a key biological mechanism in phytoplankton that is disrupted by ocean acidification.

The Jefferson Project at Lake George is now 95% complete, and has already yielded fascinating results; this smart lake is a model for other lake systems.

New research reveals new deep-reef fish assemblages thanks to the use of BRUVS underwater camera technology

BOB and MARI are a buoy and marine mooring system equipped with sensors for monitoring CO2 and other measures of acidification in the San Francisco Bay.

Tijuana River is not your typical NERR. The place where desert meets ocean meets freshwater is also home to Ridgway’s rails, halibut nurseries and more.

Researchers have begun to unpack the sources and levels of mercury pollution in the Great Lakes—as well as determine what can be done about it.

A record-setting wave in Lake Superior highlights the value of data buoys in informing the public while inviting speculation about the size of the waves that don’t get measured.

The largest study of reef sharks and rays in the world has wrapped up its field component, which involved monitoring and data collection with underwater BRUVS units.

Researchers have developed a technology for removing silver nanoparticles from laundry wastewater, reducing environmental risks.

A recent floodplain forest and riparian buffer restoration program saw 5,690 native trees and shrubs planted to protect the Connecticut River and its tributaries.

The extreme weather caused by climate change means disruptions in fouling communities in urban estuaries, and new threats from invasive species.

Despite low doses, many pharmaceutical and personal care compounds have the potential to disrupt aquatic ecosystems, with unknown consequences.

Researchers have developed a hand-held, graphene-based device for monitoring water quality at the source in real time.
