Thrilled to share that the study from my dissertation’s first chapter is out in @natwater.nature.com! Nutrient water quality monitoring in the Southeast is disproportionately concentrated in affluent areas, leaving many communities routinely overlooked in data collection. Check it out: rdcu.be/ewiYs
Surface waters in socially vulnerable areas are disproportionately under-monitored for nutrients in the US South Atlantic-Gulf region
