This Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) under the Cooperative Research Units (CFDA 15.812) program provides $206,946 to The Pennsylvania State University (Penn State) to conduct research on factors affecting streams and rivers within the Chesapeake Bay watershed. The research has two primary activities: 1) Determining the effects of land-use change and management strategies on stream health, aquatic conditions, physical habitat, and aquatic organisms in agricultural and urban streams; and 2) Identifying stressors and drivers affecting individual growth rates of riverine fish populations. The research aims to help inform conservation and management decisions for aquatic resources in the region. The award period is from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2029, and the research results will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publications and presentations to stakeholder groups.
