Workshop Report: Advancing the Art of Analyzing Risks and Benefits of Dredged Material Management [PDF]

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has been delegated responsibility for assuring the navigability of waters designated for that purpose in the United States. Dredging is among the activities required to fulfill this responsibility.

Bonds on the Ballot: What Voters (Don't) Know About Debt Financing and Why It Matters

Public Budgeting &Finance, EarlyView.
Abstract American subnational governments commonly require voters to approve bond proposals, reflecting historical concerns about legislative shortsightedness. Yet voters need an understanding of how bond financing works to make choices consistent with preferences. Existing literature makes it unclear whether voters have such knowledge.

Wetland plant growth in recycled glass sand versus dredged river sand: evaluating a new resource for coastal restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Sand made from recycled glass cullet could supplement limited dredged river sand (dredge) in coastal wetland restorations; however, its suitability for wetland plants is unknown. In two experiments, we compared the biomass of several wetland plants in recycled glass sand to growth in dredge.

Field‐grown coastal dune plants exhibit similar survival, growth, and biomass in recycled glass substrate and natural beach sand

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Restoration of coastal dunes following tropical storm events often requires renourishment of sand substrate dredged from offshore sources, although dredging has well‐described negative ecological impacts and high economic costs. As a potential solution, recycled glass sand (cullet) made from crushed glass bottles has been proposed as a potential ...

Physical and chemical characterization of recycled glass sand for environmental restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction We rely on coastal resources for food, water, and energy. However, over 75% of U.S. coastlines are eroding. Concurrently, the U.S. recycles less glass than other developed countries, landfilling hundreds of millions of tons every year.
