Sedimentation rates, nutrient sediment concentrations, and nutrient flux data from Lake Erie were collected from a variety of sources and used to generate contour maps of the sediment deposition rates, nutrient concentrations, and nutrient fluxes. These maps are helpful in determining post-depositional sediment, sediment focusing, and internal cycling of nutrients in the lake...

Wade - What are our threats? Where do we stand at our current pace of waste and misuse of our precious resources? What are ways in which we can sustain our planet? Although I will focus on the global water crisis, you will soon see how all of the current threats against our planet are intimately intertwined. We’ve heard the old saying, “keeping your head above water,” which could mean just doing the minimum or barely surviving, but what if there is no water, literally, to keep your head above. Join me, form your own opinion, and keep an open mind. Our chances are dwindling if we are...
