Status and Trends in Water Quality and Living Resources in the Virginia Chesapeake Bay: James River
Notice During the mid-1990's the Chesapeake Bay Program's (CBP) Analytical Methods and Quality Assurance Workgroup recommended that the CBP adopt new and more accurate analytical methods for measuring total nitrogen, dissolved inorganic nitrogen, total phosphorus and dissolved inorganic phosphorus. An recent examination of scatterplots of these parameters suggested that the adoption of these ne...
متن کاملERDC MSRC/PET TR/00-12 Scientific Visualization of Water Quality in the Chesapeake Bay
This paper describes our experience in designing and building a tool for visualizing the results of the CE-QUALICM Three-Dimensional Eutrophication Model, as applied to water quality in the Chesapeake Bay. This model outputs a highly multidimensional dataset over very many timesteps – outstripping the capabilities of the visualization tools available to the research team. As part of the Army En...
متن کاملIncentive-Based Land Use Policies and Water Quality in the Chesapeake Bay
The activities conducted on land surrounding the Chesapeake Bay directly affect pollution levels in the Bay, and they do so in complex and varied ways. Policy attention has been focused, for the most part, on modifying these activities within a particular land use category but not on wholesale changes in land use. For example, farmers are encouraged to use “best management practices” (BMPs) tha...
متن کاملNASA-modified precipitation products to improve USEPA nonpoint source water quality modeling for the Chesapeake Bay.
The USEPA has estimated that over 20,000 water bodies within the United States do not meet water quality standards. One of the regulations in the Clean Water Act of 1972 requires states to monitor the total maximum daily load, or the amount of pollution that can be carried by a water body before it is determined to be "polluted," for any watershed in the United States (Copeland, 2005). In respo...
متن کاملWater properties in Chesapeake Bay from MODIS-Aqua measurements
a r t i c l e i n f o This study evaluates the performance of ocean color products derived from measurements of the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on the satellite Aqua using the standard near-infrared (NIR) and the shortwave infrared (SWIR)-based atmospheric correction algorithms in the Chesapeake Bay. The MODIS-Aqua-derived normalized water-leaving radiances, nL w (λ), ...
