ݮƵ wetlands research appears today in Nature
A new study by ݮƵ Engineering researchers found that targeting wetland restoration in heavily farmed areas would dramatically reduce the amount of nitrogen polluting rivers, lakes and coastal areas.
The researchers, who collaborated with a University of ݮƵ alumnus who is now a professor at the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC), examined detailed data on wetland locations and nitrogen loads from fertilizer on farm fields throughout the United States.
