    I wish there was more information about site selection for monitoring. This has been one of the biggest challenges volunteering for different organizations (local and from other states). Baseline readings for my local organization helps provide data for groundwater events during spring/summer. However, these sites are not adequate for winter hotspot testing. Is it excessive to call the local cities and see if there’s a possibly to get ahold of drainage maps? Simply testing at road crossings doesn’t seem like enough to me. The possibility for overuse of salt is more prevalent with private applicators, because there is a level of ignorance. How can a volunteer make there efforts go further? We know when to test. I believe volunteers need more help in deciding where to test, especially if they are willing to go above just doing road crossings.(Spoken from someone who is a contractor during the winter months and is also a citizen scientist).

    • @StroudCenter
      @StroudCenter 6 днів тому

      Thanks for your questions! Below are the responses from Dr. Jackson. For more winter salt information, visit stroudcenter.org/salt. -- Obtaining drainage maps: Check out our watershed modeling app, Model My Watershed (modelmywatershed.org). It can produce a drainage map across local municipalities with land cover data that helps target sampling. -- Testing at road crossings: Road crossings are a start because stormwater often follows them. Our scientists and their community science partners are strategic, focusing on where salt is applied, especially parking lots, major roads, and highways. We might sample above and below road crossings, and we might sample streams in pipes. -- Salt overuse by private applicators: Private applicators and their landowners' expectations and fears are well-known challenges. New Hampshire currently has the best approach to dealing with private applicators, with training and certification that provides limited liability insurance.

    • @Plarux
      @Plarux 6 днів тому

      @StroudCenter I appreciate the feedback! The watershed modeling app did not help, but it does provide meaningful data and info. I am interested in seeing where stormwater is entering the local stream via drainage pipes. Municipalities in the area are more conscious about salt use, while private applicators are dropping at the first flake of snow. You only have to drive around the day after the local news gets the weather wrong to see the effects of oversalting by private applicators. If the properties they manage are the target, how would I find out where they drain to? Scouting the area and mapping where pipes are draining into the water is what I’ve done for the park near me. The only other option that I have found is calling the city for help. Salting when the weather doesn’t cooperate in case of a storm is the problem in my area. Our region has been unlucky with snow this year. Contractors are desperate for a billing.

    So I’m new here, first video I’ve watched and I’m wondering why you’re so interested in this creek? I’ve lived along this creek my whole life in the upper section radnor to havertown and there’s a few things I’d like to point out. 1 talking about the genetic mutations in the bass, it’s actually common but rare with the trout we have, now you left out the brooks that are native here and they mate with browns and make tiger trouts which can’t reproduce like the situation that you’ve came across so it’s happened before in different species. Secondly you didn’t bring up the Lower Darby creek superfund sites in which both landfills were both found to be contaminating the lower Darby with with medical waste into the watershed leading to the Heinz. 3 to answer the question whoever had about daylighting in havertown lol yeah never going to happen it’s not even a thought in their mind. Sorry. Unfortunately I know that for an actual fact I felt bad he tried but politics…. Also I was surprised you said you were surprised you found an eel in berwyn…. I personally caught 3 or 4 kept and cooked one and my buddy who I shared this video with caught atleast 5 plus one out of the Delaware river. They can grow bigger than 3ft. Also it’s sad to hear but I live in a flood plain and my condos get flooded out often, it wasn’t just upper salt and brine it was everyone’s upstream and that’s something I never thought of…. That’s a shame it killed off a lot. Anyways like I said this is the first video I watched and as someone whose lived 30 years on this creek and know it from radnor to drexill hill I thought I would share my thoughts.
