@allisonherreid many dams create reservoirs that provide recreational value to people such as boating and fishing, but is that worth harming the ecosystem? #AquaEco2017

[Kyle Macdonald @KmacEco]

Small streams should be included in the clean water rule because they are connected to and affect larger rivers and lakes. #AquaEco2017 https://t.co/VkTZ23Vmgt

Good morning! There's a @HouseScience hearing this AM that'll spend a lot of time ignoring science and attacking the 2015 Clean Water Rule. We'll provide comments here. #DefendWater

[Kyle Macdonald @KmacEco]

@Nate_Cleveland are you surprised? #AquaEco2017

[Kyle Macdonald @KmacEco]

@Kyle_Hacker1 nice to see new ideas being put in action #Aquaeco2017

[Kyle Macdonald @KmacEco]

@KyleSeawards we may never fully understand how many issues we cause #Aquaeco2017

[Kyle Macdonald @KmacEco]

Fisherman are great advocates for aquatic ecosystem preservation #Aquaeco2017 https://t.co/eNuW9qxZuK

[Simms Fishing @simmsfishing]

Last call – The Smith River Needs You! Take action and tell Montana DEQ that we need to protect this river at all costs. Public comment period closes tonight. Make your voice heard! https://t.co/Cz2ptEIVtG #saveoursmith

[Kyle Macdonald @KmacEco]

@KyleSeawards looks like a little too much for the carbonate buffer to withstand #AquaEco2017

[Kyle Macdonald @KmacEco]

@MauraMarche @Kyle_Hacker1 there is a large nitrogen loading problem that is thought to be coming from sediments being kicked up due to dying eel grass. #AquaEco2017

[Kyle Macdonald @KmacEco]

Small streams are starting to form ice on the surface, will surely affect the ecosystem. #AquaEco2017

[Kyle Macdonald @KmacEco]

@AlexzandraUNH with other stresses like increased fishing, these fish are going to have a hard time surviving #AquaEco2017

[Kyle Macdonald @KmacEco]

@WilWollheim on the bright side, this could be used to study large scale effects of waste water on river networks. #AquaEco2017

[Kyle Macdonald @KmacEco]

I expect much higher methane concentrations in the sediment samples due to low DO. #AquaEco2017 https://t.co/SUCUAdgduv

[Ruth Varner @RuthVarner1]

Understanding emissions of methane from reservoirs-great job today @caceres_mason @kyle__macdonald @KBail20 #aquaeco2017 @UNH_CEPS @unhESRC

[Kyle Macdonald @KmacEco]

I wonder if more developed areas like Conway are seeing the highest discharge. #AquaEco2017 https://t.co/czkqxSLP0D

[Al @allisonherreid]

Crazy discharge in the White Mountains! #AquaEco2017

[Kyle Macdonald @KmacEco]

I think people outside of science tend to not realize the importance of headwater streams, hopefully they read this! #AquaEco2017 https://t.co/91CcTt44xQ

[Kyle Hacker @Kyle_Hacker1]

A short read highlighting the importance of protecting headwater streams #AquaEco2017 https://t.co/F2bGPivtFk

[Kyle Macdonald @KmacEco]

Took water chemistry measurements the other day at the oyster river reservoir and tidal area, results should be interesting. #AquaEco2017 https://t.co/2UhJ0aynBH

[Ruth Varner @RuthVarner1]

Another great day to do #fieldwork right @kyle__macdonald ? @UNH_CEPS @unhESRC

[Kyle Macdonald @KmacEco]

Floodplains provide some of the most important ecosystem services but account for only 2% of land. #Aquaeco2017 https://t.co/xTGNFAHz6z

[American Rivers @americanrivers]

Floods can occur at any time of the year, in any part of the country, and at any time of the day or night. https://t.co/X7cucw2J7U

[Kyle Macdonald @KmacEco]

@P_OJaeger @Kyle_Hacker1 And there will likely be less nutrients available to the streams in the future #Aquaeco2017

[Kyle Macdonald @KmacEco]

@MauraMarche @NateBlais32 Relentless resistance is a good short term solution but better education should be the long term solution #Aquaeco2017

[Kyle Macdonald @KmacEco]

Love seeing companies fight for preserving aquatic ecosystems #AquaEco2017 https://t.co/uUKA9EG4ap

[Simms Fishing @simmsfishing]

Take action NOW & #SaveBristolBay #NoPebbleMine @LisaMurkowski @SenDanSullivan @EPAScottPruitt @realDonaldTrump https://t.co/H40BeNmbHj

[Kyle Macdonald @KmacEco]

@KAGoodwin18 We need to learn how to benefit from ecosystems without destroying them #Aquaeco2017
