Discovering the Occoquan Watershed

Check out my presentation to learn more about alluvial soils and flood exposure in the Occoquan Watershed.

At the end of the semester, I will assemble all my course products by uploading them into the Portfolio section on Canvas. I will also keep all my current course products intact on my blog. Beyond the end of the semester, I would like to continue to use my blog as a platform to share both new discoveries about my home watershed as well as updates about my PhD research. My research is focused on stormwater management and urban water sustainability and I'd like to use my blog to help spread my findings with a wider audience and hopefully inform future watershed stewardship efforts around the world.

Learn more about water chestnut, an invasive aquatic plant that has been observed in the Occoquan Reservoir.

Conductivity and pH are two important water quality parameters to monitor in the Occoquan Watershed's streams and waterways.
