We propose to investigate changes in nutrient structure of the Cuyahoga River through analysis of phosphorus speciation and isotopes. The goal of this proposed research is to obtained an exploratory dataset towards better understanding nutrient transferring and cycling in the Cuyahoga River Watershed. This project involves several aspects of research that have never been explored in this watershed and has the potential to generate the needed information that would help us pinpoint the causes of recent increases in DRP loadings from the Lake Erie tributaries. The results of this research may serve as a base or startpoint for future research at Cleveland State.
