Rivers are important indicators of ecosystem health and the long-term effects of climate change. To better understand how climate change is affecting Ohio’s rivers, Ohio State University undergraduate Melody Green, along with Drs. Devin Smith and Berry Lyons, have been studying the Grand River and Big Darby Creek. They will present their findings at GSA Connects 2024 in Anaheim, focusing on river discharge—a key measure of water volume flow.
