Research Collaborations
Research plays a central role in URI Watershed Watch. We are a scientist-led program, with monitoring and analytical procedures based on scientific research conducted by US Environmental Protection Agency, the US Geological Survey, and applied scientists within a wide range of water resources fields. Our analytical laboratory provides analytical services to researchers within and outside of URI. Our monitoring results are widely incorporated by undergraduate, graduate, academic, and agency research efforts.
