Projects
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: 20050347
To support investigation of the various stresses that may be contributing to the extensive loss of vegetation in the Quinnipiac tidal marshes and begin to gather data on the relative importance of sub-surface compaction, decompositon in causing elevation loss in this ecosystem.
Year Issued: 2005 | Amount: $12,000
Yale University Grant and Contract Administration
Grant Number: 20050346
To offer a short course in river processes to local members of conservation/inland wetland commissions and environmrntal activists. The course will cover the basic hydrologic, geomorphic, chemical and biological processes that govern stream exosystems, and how they are perturbed by human activities. Participants will receive the scientific tools that they need in order to understand and critically evaluate environemntal data on the Q River.
Year Issued: 2005 | Amount: $7,500
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
To measure contamination along the Quinnipiac River and in oysters of the New Haven Harbor and evaluate the extent of mercury pollution and identify sources and hotspots.
Year Issued: 2004 | Amount: $7,500
Yale University Grant and Contract Administration
Grant Number: 20010411
To support Field Research Program to document wetland loss along the Quinnipiac River Estuary and document baseline conditions and historic trends.
Year Issued: 2001 | Amount: $14,350
Yale University Grant and Contract Administration
Grant Number: 20010407
To collect and publish a systematic review of municipal land-use regulations in the Quinnipiac River Watershed.
Year Issued: 2001 | Amount: $15,000
Yale University Grant and Contract Administration
Grant Number: 20010412
To support studying nutrient export from subwatersheds during storm events, including phosphorus (P), which is the limiting nutrient in fresh waters.
Year Issued: 2001 | Amount: $8,860
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.
Year Issued: 2000 | Amount: $14,842
