This literature review addresses how wide a streamside forest buffer needs to be to protect
water quality, habitat, and biota for small streams (≤~ 100 km2 or~ 5th order watershed) …

Despite decades of effort toward reducing nitrogen and phosphorus flux to Chesapeake
Bay, water‐quality and ecological responses in surface waters have been mixed. Recent …

They may influence us as individuals by their encouragement and guidance; they may affect
their community through their untiring commitment to service and the greater good; or they …

Understanding spatial distributions, synergies, and tradeoffs of multiple ecosystem services
(benefits people derive from ecosystems) remains challenging. We analyzed the supply of …

The sustainability of hydrologic ecosystem services (freshwater benefits to people generated
by terrestrial ecosystems) is challenged by human modification of landscapes. However, the …

This review evaluates research in the past 20 years focusing on groundwater nitrate removal
in the riparian zones of agricultural watersheds. Studies have reported a large range in the …

We used locally-sourced and other relevant information to value ecosystem services
provided by South Africa's terrestrial, freshwater and estuarine habitats. Our preliminary …

Human and ecological health have been threatened by the increase of cyanobacteria
harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) in freshwater systems. Successful mitigation of this risk …

Elevated nitrogen concentrations in streams and rivers in the Chesapeake Bay watershed
have adversely affected the ecosystem health of the bay. Much of this nitrogen is derived as …

The effects of land use and land-use changes on river nutrient concentrations are not well
understood, especially in the watersheds of developing countries that have a mixed land …
