Going to #JASM22? Check out our effort to identify the big challenges in freshwater science with presentations on Tuesday (& online) and a lunchtime session on Wednesday.
Sujay Kaushal of @umdgeology@ESSICUMD collects water samples in Rock Creek today to measure how water quality changes due to deicers used for the snowstorm. Deicers prevent accidents but increase salt in freshwater streams & negatively impact drinking water. #TerpsKnowScience
In our paper published today in @naturesustainab, we show how indirect potable reuse (IPR) of wastewater contributes to freshwater salinization and identify behavioral and technological interventions to improve "salt productivity".

Freshwater Salinization Syndrome threatens water security, human health, & infrastructure globally. New #Biogeochemistry paper calls for coordinated management of the salt pollution problem. Led by @SujayKaushal, Caryโs Gene Likens is among the authors. https://t.co/45ykMor5lY
@RiverGypsyAJ Grew up in a farming community in Indiana and my dad died when I was young. Am sure your dad would be proud. Glad about pipeline decision.
@mcanedofem @UniBarcelona @FEHMlab @BETA_TechCenter @UVicAquatic@cerm_uvic@dalytle@UAlg Congratulations, Miguel. Great news for you and your family. Well deserved, and theyโre lucky to have you.
