Projects
Grant Number: 20070060
Funds are requested to conduct mercury contamination research at Wharton Brook in Quinnipiac River system. Research activities include measuring mercury in water, benthic macroinvertebrates, and fish along the length of thw Wharton Brook and its tributaries.
Year Issued: 2007 | Amount: $18,446
Yale University Grant and Contract Administration
Grant Number: 20070056
Funds are requested to support the continuation of measuring elevation change and water levels in the Quinnipiac River marshes in efforts to understand the rate and causes of marsh drowning (conversion to mudflat) that has been observed there.
Year Issued: 2007 | Amount: $14,294
Yale University Grant and Contract Administration
Grant Number: 20060119
To support the measurement of methyl mercury in the Quinnipiac River and the New Haven Harbor. The work will also provide direct information on safety of local finfish and shellfish.

Yale University Grant and Contract Administration
Grant Number: 20050336
To support the measurement of methyl mercury contamination in the Quinnipiac River and the Oysters in New Haven Harbor. The study will evaluate the extent of methylmercury pollution and help to identify sources and hotspots.
Year Issued: 2005 | Amount: $14,500
Yale University Grant and Contract Administration
Grant Number: 20040390

Yale University Grant and Contract Administration
Grant Number: 20000305
To support the project entitled Bioaccumulation of Sediment Contaminants by Benthos of the Quinnipiac River. This proposed research is an investigation of the sediment contaminant load of two sites in the Quinnipiac River and the availability of the contaminants to the benthic organisms living in them.
Year Issued: 2000 | Amount: $20,000
Yale University Grant and Contract Administration
Grant Number: 200000306
To support the project entitled Comparison of Sediment Contaminants in the Branford River and the Quinnipiac River and their effects on the Benthic community. This proposed research is an investigation of the sediment contaminant load of five sites in the Quinnipiac River and three sites within the Branford River.
