Best Scientific Paper by a New USGS Scientist Award
Dr. Dianna Hogan, a research physical scientist in the Eastern Geographic Science Center, is the first recipient of the Geography Discipline's Best Scientific Paper by a New USGS Scientist Award for 2007.
This is one of two annual awards that Geography has instituted
to acknowledge individual scientists for their contribution to
geographic science through published, peer-reviewed manuscripts.
Dr. Hogan shares the award with her co-author Dr. Mark Walbridge,
U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service.
Their paper entitled “Best Management Practices for Nutrient and Sediment Retention in Urban Stormwater Runoff” was published in the Journal of Environmental Quality (Vol 36: 386-395, 2007) and contributes substantially
to our knowledge of the effectiveness of Best Management Practices (BMPs) structures in urban
environmental settings. More information.... |
