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.

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.
