Expanding access to urban nature
This study examines the social dimensions of Urban Rivers’ Free Kayak Days at the Bubbly Creek Floating Gardens in Chicago, Illinois. Floating gardens are a form of blue-green infrastructure that provide ecological benefits, including nutrient removal, habitat creation, and shoreline stabilization, while also offering recreational and educational opportunities. Guided by environmental justice scholarship, our interdisciplinary team conducted part…
The Influence of a Floating Wetland on Nitrate and Phosphate Reduction in Urban Waterways
Urban streams often suffer from poor water quality, in part due to nutrient pollution, especially in highly developed areas. Poor water quality, driven by high concentrations of nitrate and phosphate entering waterways from runoff, wastewater, and stormwater systems, contributes to urban stream syndrome. This study evaluates the long-term performance of a floating wetland (FW) system installed in a canal of the North Branch of the Chicago River n…
Controls on Longitudinal Stream Profile Evolution in Guadalupe Mountains National Park
Canyons in Guadalupe Mountains National Park are excellent locations to study the discrete boundary conditions that influence longitudinal channel profile evolution including climate, tectonics, hydrology, and lithology. The Guadalupe Mountain landscape records deep earth mantle processes in combination with surficial channel erosion and incision. Knickpoints and convex segments in longitudinal river profiles document impacts of climate change, t…
Surficial geology of the Woodstock, IL 7.5 minute Quadrangle, Mchenry County, Illinois, scale 1
The surficial geology of the Woodstock 7.5-minute Quadrangle, which is located in the northwest part of the Chicago-Metropolitan Area, was mapped to better address natural resource issues and better understand local geologic history. In the study area, the population is dependent completely upon groundwater for water supplies, and groundwater withdrawals are expected to increase dramatically in coming decades. The landscape and surficial geologic…
