While it's been a hot muggy week in eastern Iowa, we've still been out gathering samples and data. We've added several sites in our work with the Indian Creek Soil Health project in which we're mostly gathering background data in support of project which will be going in this fall. Next summer, we'll be looking at the effectiveness of wetlands, biofilters, and saturated buffers at removing nutrients before they enter Indian Creek.
