Novel Experimental Designs and Mathematical Models to Study Fecal Indicator Bacteria Persistence in Surface Water

Creator:

Brooks, Lauren

Abstract:

High counts of fecal indicators, used to signal the potential presence of pathogens associated with untreated waste, result in the classification of water bodies throughout the United States as impaired. Nonpoint sources of unknown origin that contribute to fecal contamination make management of impaired waters challenging, as they are difficult...
