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: 20070055
Funds are requested to support the offering of a short course in river processes to local members of conservation/inland wetland commissions and environmental activists. The course will cover the basic hydrologic, geomorphic, chemical, and biological processes that govern stream ecosystems, and how they are perturbed by human activities. Participants will recieve the scientific tools that they need in order to understand and critically evaluate environmental data on the Quinnipiac River.
Year Issued: 2007 | Amount: $8,064
Yale University Grant and Contract Administration
Grant Number: 20060112
To support the implementation of a short course in river processes for environmental activists and decision-makers.
Year Issued: 2006 | Amount: $7,744
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: 20040385
To support a short course in river processes to local environmental activists and municipal officials that will cover the basic hydrologic, geomorphic, chemical and biological processes that govern stream ecosystems and how they are perturbed by human activities.
Year Issued: 2004 | Amount: $7,390
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: 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
