Journal ArticleDOI
Urban ecological systems: Scientific foundations and a decade of progress
Steward T. A. Pickett,Mary L. Cadenasso,J. M. Grove,Christopher G. Boone,Peter M. Groffman,Elena G. Irwin,Sujay S. Kaushal,Victoria J. Marshall,Brian McGrath,Charles H. Nilon,Richard V. Pouyat,Katalin Szlavecz,Austin Troy,Paige S. Warren +13 more
TL;DR: The state factor approach is used to highlight the role of important aspects of climate, substrate, organisms, relief, and time in differentiating urban from non-urban areas, and for determining heterogeneity within spatially extensive metropolitan areas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased salinization of fresh water in the northeastern United States
Sujay S. Kaushal,Peter M. Groffman,Gene E. Likens,Kenneth T. Belt,William P. Stack,Victoria R. Kelly,Lawrence E. Band,G. T. Fisher +7 more
TL;DR: If salinity were to continue to increase at its present rate due to changes in impervious surface coverage and current management practices, many surface waters in the northeastern United States would not be potable for human consumption and would become toxic to freshwater life within the next century.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rising stream and river temperatures in the United States
Sujay S. Kaushal,Gene E. Likens,Norbert A. Jaworski,Michael L. Pace,Michael L. Pace,Ashley M Sides,David A. Seekell,Kenneth T. Belt,David H. Secor,Rebecca L. Wingate +9 more
TL;DR: The authors analyzed historical records from 40 sites and found that 20 major streams and rivers have shown statistically significant, long-term warming, and rates of warming were most rapid in, but not confined to, urbanizing areas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tracking nonpoint source nitrogen pollution in human-impacted watersheds.
Sujay S. Kaushal,Peter M. Groffman,Lawrence E. Band,Emily M. Elliott,Catherine A. Shields,Carol Kendall +5 more
TL;DR: Overall, nonpoint sources such as atmospheric deposition, wastewater, and fertilizer showed different susceptibility to watershed N export, and anticipating source changes in response to climate and storms will be critical for managing nonpoint N pollution.
Journal ArticleDOI
The urban watershed continuum: evolving spatial and temporal dimensions
Sujay S. Kaushal,Kenneth T. Belt +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an urban watershed continuum framework recognizes a continuum of engineered and natural hydrologic flowpaths that expands hydrologics networks in ways that are seldom considered. And the authors propose testable hypotheses of how transport/transformation of materials and energy vary along a continuous flowpath in space and time.
