Hydrological Processes, Volume 39, Issue 10, October 2025.Study compared effects of traditional stormwater storage ponds to environmental site design (ESD) on annual maximum peak flows, annual runoff coefficient and flow flashiness in a developed catchment with limited stormwater controls. ESD and ponds reduced annual maximum peak flow by nearly 50%, but only ESD significantly decreased the annual runoff ...

Microplastic, an Emerging Threat to the Global Seagrass Ecosystems: A Review
Environmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 1, Fall 2025.ABSTRACT Seagrass, a type of marine plant that grows into meadows in intertidal zones and shallow coastal waters, can contribute to numerous ecological and economic benefits. Benefits include carbon sequestration, habitat for marine species, coastal protection, and raw materials for medicines and fertilizer production.
