Stormwater runoff pollution is a serious issue that faces almost every urban and suburban environment. In older city infrastructure, runoff from roofs, parking lots, and streets flows directly into the sewer system and must be handled by the municipal wastewater treatment facility, increasing the amount of work the system must undertake. For the past 30 years, the infrastructure for stormwater runoff has bypassed t
The Stevens HydraProbe is now being used to monitor the progress of a new groundwater pollution clean up method called phytoremediation. Phytoremediation is the method by which trees are used to pull contamination out of groundwater. Remediation of conta

Many complex political, social, environmental and scientific challenges impact water resources. Snow telemetry (SNOTEL), one of the world’s largest meteorological networks, working under the US Department of Agriculture (USDA), provides critical stream flow predictions for the understanding of hydrology in western USA.
For more than 100 years, predicting stream flow has been important for hydro-power generation, irrigation, water supply networks, and aquatic habitat protection.
